TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL �I
CITY OF ALLEN
STATE OF TEXAS
Each of the undersigned persons, having an honest and sincere
regard for the welfare and safety of the citizens of the City of Allen and
acting in what each regards as the best interest of the City of Allen, do
hereby respectfully requests The Honorable Mayor and City Council of the
City of Allen to reinstate Patrolman U. E. Martin and to render whatever
acts and deeds are necessary and deemed expedient to effectively cause
said reinstatement of U. E. Martin as a Patrolman for the City of Allen.
The said U. E. Martin was improperly dismissed on the 16th day of November,
1970, over a minor occurrence which it is in the best interest of public
reliance and corporate justice for said city to rectify. The said
U. E. Martin is personally known by each of the undersigned to be a person

officer with utmost integrity. The said U. E. Martin is physically
qualified and has been duly trained and certified to properly and efficiently
carry out the duties of a Patrolman. To our best knowledge and belief, he
has done nothing during his tenure as a Patrolman to warrant his dismissal
and we confidently and earnestly request his reinstatement as Patrolman.
