Gentlemen:
We petition your... honorable body for
the privilege of closing the alley as it is
laid out in the Parkdale AddItion'tomisite
on fractional block 23 fronting on the
Southern Pacific railroad on south the
t� U , a n c'.
on the west by Fourth Street.
The short alley which is shovm, on
townsite map is of no service to anyone,, and
i.7e wria the entire fractional block 23 and
all of block 22
., and fract(1
conal block 241.,
immediately aca�oss Fourth Street from block
23.
This alleyway as shoc.,,n on the city map
serves no good purpose and there is a
prospect of get -ting some improvements an this
cd
