| To the Board Of Public Works.
GENTLEMEN: In the preliminary estimate for
Louis street the entire street running to the
| south side of Fullers addition was included.
I did not discover until the work was adver-
| tised for letting that the order of the Council
| to grade the street only includes it as far as
Rondo street, leading out about two hundred
and fifty feet north of Rondo street.
If you think it desirable that the whole
| street should be done at once, I suggest that If
the Council will order the remaining portion
so that it can be let at any time during the
| together. The cost would probably be about
$400. Very respectfully submitted,
j. 8. SEwALL,
Engineer Board of Public Works.
