Endorsement Of Capt Symons on the papers
throws some light on the proceedings instituted
by Mr.. Rose against the District relative 70 the
extension of 18th street:
II recommend that Mr. Howell be directed
70 make the necessary surveys to establish the
streets which cross 4th street east extended
through Mr.. Roses property. l would send
this direct to Mr.. Howell for his action, but
deem il Of sufficient importance to invite your
attention to it and through you the attention Of
the attorney who must manage the suit Of in
junction brought by Mr.. Rose against the Dis
trict.
In this paper MI. Latimer states as he stated
verbally to me, that Mr.. Rose has asked HIM 10
extend these streets and subdivide his property
for HIM, and that he has been waiting until he
could get the established lines before doing so.
This shows that Mr.. Rose asked Mr.. Latimer to
do this last June. showing that a, that time he
acquiesced in the extension Of 4th street to the
extent of desiring to still further subdivide his
property. As this may have a considerable
bearing on the case / recommend that il first
