Dear Sir:_
Sometime in May you were informed that the City of Port Townsend had been credits
with $1620.00 on the basis of 0500.00 per mile for maintaining the Primaz•y Highway through
your city during the whole of the 1937-1939 biennium.
j It has developed that we were in error in making this entry for the entire biennium
The Director of Highways is required by Section 61, Chapter 187, Laws of 1937, to certify the
mileage each year. Some mileage will be changed in April, 1938. Therefore we should have
,1 made our credit entries for one year only, or one-half of the amount actually set up to your /-
a credit.
iI ✓ Will you therefore red ink $810.00, the equivalent of one-half the amount credited
# i to your city.
Very truly yours, J. 17. Hamilton, District Engineer
By E. W. Elwell, End. Stata Aid Hwys.
