To the Honorable Mayor and City Council or the City of Ft. Worth.

Gentlemen:

Your petitioner would respectfully represent to the Council
that for sometime past there has been great desire and effort on the
part of the residents along Alston Avenue in the City of Ft. Worth
south of Magnolia Avenue to have the street opened for its full
width along her property. That she has not been heretofore so situated
as to be able to make the city an offer on the strip of ground
necessary to open said street to its full width, but she now states
that circumstances have arisen which justify her in making the
following proposition.

For the sum of six hundred dollars ($600.00) to her to be paid
she will make to the city a deed to said strip of ground off the
west side of her property as will be necessary to open up Alston
Avenue to its full width, reserving, however, of course, her
improvements which the city shall remove from the strip of ground
sold to the city to her own ground on the east thereof.

She makes this offer to the city at the foregoing low price in
consideration of her desire to enable the city to benefit its
citizens on said portion of Alston Avenue.

And petitioner further says that she would be glad if the
City Council would give the matter its very earliest consideration
as she is very desirous of knowing what she will have to do as she
contemplates making some improvements on her property in the very
near future.

Respectfully submitted,

Mrs. Lelia F. Tidball
