Seattle Washington September 3 1890
To the Hon The Mayor & City Council of the City of Seattle
Gentlemen
I would most respectfully ask that you forbid the location of what is Termed a "merry go round" at the location of Seventh and Spring street. It is objectionable on account of the character of persons that are drawn to it. as with as the noise and tumult occasioned by running it. To permit it to be operated at the point refered to would connect what is now one of the most quiet neighborhoods into a rendevous for loafers and other bad characters. We therefore respectfully ask that no permit be granted for the purpose named
and your petitioners that ever pray very respectfully Amelia Alden
