<br />
<br />Gentlemen:
<br /> I respectfully request to be reimbursed for the ~ax of $6.01 as per the enclosed
<br />tax receipt~
<br /> I moved ~o Portsmouth, $2 ~orth H~tton Street, from Elizabeth Gity, N.G., on Nay

<br />to have been a resident o£ Portsmouth prior to February let, 1933. I_had to pay these taxes
<br />inasmuch as they were assessed against me before I could get my Gi~y License ooveri~ my au-
<br />tomobile.
<br /> I.respectfully request that these be re£unded.
<br />
<br />Yours very truiy,
