To the Honorable City Council
of City of Seattle
Gentlemen
At sale for City Taxes
of 1890, Lot 7 Blk 22 Burke's
2d Addition was sold to T
Hanford at sale held July 18th
1891 as shown by certificate
of purchase No 461, said
certificate being then signed
by T Hanford to me.
Sale was erroneous, the
lot having been assessed
to W D Adams and tax
paid by him Feby 28/91

I therefore request that
you refund to me the cost
