City of Seattle Records

To The Honorable Board of Public Works

AND

CITY COUNCIL of the city of Seattle, Washington.

Gentlemen: --

We the undersigned citizens of Fremont, and the newly annexed territory to your city, would respectfully represent to your honorable bodies that we are sadly in need of lights for our streets and railroad-crossings: that the Houre of Delegates has promised us four (4) arc lights, and the Board of Aldermen has agreed to give us seven (7) arc lights, but as the matter stands we are not assured of getting any lights at all.

Wherefore: we most humbly petition that you take definite action at your very earliest convenience, and supply us with the number of arc lights you see fit, but that they be put up at once if possible.
