To the Hon. Mayor and City Council of Ft. Worth,
Gentlemen:-
Through some inadvertency or misunderstanding, my tax rendition for the year just closing is incorect and I beg to ask that taxes be assessed on property as follows, which is a correct statement of my Credits and Real Estate as they stood January 1st 1902;-
Credits Notes and Bills $1300. Cashier's Check $1680.
Lots 3 & 4 in Block E. $150 Billevue Addition each 300.
Other property such as Household goods etc. was rendered correctly, and should stand as reduced.
I attach hereto statement signed by Thompson & Thompson (contractors) stating that they built my home during the months of January, February & March 1902, which would indicate that my house assessed at $2000, should be out entirely out of the rendition.
You will also please note attached hereto certified statement from the Farmers

& Mechanics National Bank, that Cashiers Check was made to my son, R.W.Fender, in the sum of $1680.00, on Dec 28th 1901, which was endorse to a A.J. Roe, who was bondsman to contractors, Thompson & Thomson. This $1680 was the amount of money I had in case on January 1st 1901 My ^money & credits should therefore read $2980 instead of $3700
Me petition is, therefore that your honorable body may authorize a cancellation of tax on my house, and authorize a reduction correction in my Credits Money in the sum of $720.00 making my ^ money & Credits read $2980.00
