holm and the Ensminger estate.
After years OF reasoning and plead
ing with these property owners for
a right OF way IL was found that
the only way possible to secure
same was by legal process. so we
began condemnation proceedings.
Mr.. Trenholm wanted sl9,27S.66
for the strip of ground necessary
for this street. but a jury In the
superior court said s9.2S0.52 was
enough. II cost us si.s35.65 court

was wrong.

Had IL not been for the amhi.
ton OF Trenholm to he mayor Of
Seattle and for the timely assist

not have secured title to this street
without the added expense OF su-
preme court proceedings.
But we are stlll deprived Of the
use of this strip OF land, which now
belongs TO us. To use II, the prop
erty must be graded. but again MIR.
