First National BAnk
of Sour Lake, Texas.
PAID UP CAPITAL $60,000.00
SOUR LAKE, TEXAS.

Fort Worth, Texas, March 1"/1905.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Fort Worth:

Gentlemen:-

The rendition of the property described in the
enclosed statement is excessive for the year 1902. This is a
vacant lot, and was vacant at that time, and was then worth about
what is was rendered rented for in 1904, to-wit, $325.00, whereas the rendition
is $1750.00. It was evidently assessed on the basis of being
improved. I respectfully ask you to reduce the assessment to
$325.00.

Yours respectfully,
Geo. W. Armstrong
