Seattle, Wash. Nov. 21st, 1889

To The Honorable,
The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Seattle.

We the undersigned petitioners represent
to your Honorable body that we are
property holders on Depot St. in the
vicinity of Ash and Willow Sts., that
we are without adequate facilities for
protection against fire, in that the
nearest fire plug to our property is
at the corner of Front and Wall Sts. at
a distance of six (6) blocks, that the rapid
growth of this part of the city requires
better facilities for protection against
fire. Wherefore your petitioners pray.
That water mains be extended from the
nearest practicable point, to and along
Depot St. between Ash and Willow Sts.
and that fire plugs be placed at the corner
of Depot and Ash Sts. and at the corner of
Deoot and Willow Sts.
