Seattle, Washington, .......Feby 16.... 1891

has been measured up by the Supt. of
B. Br. W. and in value amounts to $443.52
and can be utilized to advantage -
The total amt. to be paid by the City, therefore,
is $1350- plus $443.52 Equalling $1783.52

As the contractors are men of small means
and as the bills contracted on this work
are yet unpaid, caused by the unsettled
condition in which the matter for some
time has existed, it is considered very
desirable to make an immediate payment
in settlement of the contractors bills
as now adjusted, and the claims
awaiting satisfaction.

We therefore request that a special
appropriation be made by your Hon.
Body of $1783.52 for the prompt settlement
desired.
