To the Honorable the Senate and Assembly of the State of Wisconsin
Your Memorialists would respectfully represent.
That by an Act of the Wisconsin Legislature, approved March 1860, the city of Berlin was divided, and the town of Forsyth was erected, partly from territory taken from said city.
That no provision was made in the said Act, authorizing an equitable division of the School Monies then in the common treasury.
[the following paragraph is crossed out in the original] That on a full and final settlement by the proper authorities of the said corporations, it appears that there is now due from the said city, to school District No. 1. in said town, the sum of six hundred and forty dollars and fifty cents ($640.50)
We therefore ask that the said Act of division be so amended, as to authorize the Board of Education of the City of Berlin, to issue to the District Treasurer of No 1 in said School District Town of Forsyth an order on the City Treasurer of said City, for the [struck through] sum of six hundred and forty dollars and fifty cents as aforesaid amount due the said School Dis. No. one for the said City.
