and objects to the assessment for street improvements aoross

That this company, although the owner of the abutting
property to the intersection of the said 13th Street and
its said right-of-way. does and oan make no use of said land
other than to pass over the same in connection with its afore-
said duties as common carrier, and that this company will not
and cannot reoeive any benefit from said street improvement
whatsoever.
2. And for further objection, not waiving any
of its objection as atatc3 in paragraph 1 hereof, the right-
of-way.of this Company, when aoquired, was granted by the then
owner,to this oompany,subject to any of the land previously
dedicated by the said then owner for the use of the public. That
the plat of this portion of the City of Miami, then in existence,
to -wit, Knowlton's Plat, reoorded as above described, shows
that that part of this Company's right-of-way. which crosses said
25th Street (now S. W. 13th Street) includes an intersection
of said street with that certain street which is now known as
Southwest let Avenue, the cost and expense of paving which is
expressly placed upon the City of Miami by virtue of the charter
of said City of 1925, and as said assessment now stands upon the
proposed assessment roll, the cost and expense of paving this
said street intersection is placed upon this Company.
WHEREFORE, there being no benefit whatsoever to
be derived by this company from the improvement of said street,
we pray that this Honorable Commission do not confirm said
assessment and as it stands upon the proposed assessment roll,
as it applies to the property owned by this Company.
