Petition asking Paving of Streets in Norfolk.

• imprint_number: 1805.065
• title: To the Speaker and Members of the House of Delegates ... inhabitants of the borough of Norfolk ...
• sequence_number: 65
• year: 1805
• place_issued: Norfolk
• issuing_press: Uncertain
• author: Inhabitants of the Borough of Norfolk.
• notes: Petitioners asked for authorization to raise money via a lottery to pave the major streets in Norfolk; the Assembly declined to act during this session, but did pass such an act at the ensuing Assembly session.
  Sheet lacks colophon; undoubtedly a Norfolk-issued imprint, but the multiplicity of presses then operating there precludes an attribution to any specific one without further evidence.
