Complying with the instructions so given him the Harbor Master employ- ed the necessary help to break the coating of ice covering the Harbor, so that the boats could be removed and arrange for the necessary boats and help to carry out your instructions, and on Monday, November 21st, when about to commence the removal of the Keckevoet houses, Mr. Keckevote of- fered to pay the amount due the city under the ordinance for the wharfage for the years 1909 and 1910, the pay- ment to be made under protest, and upon condition that he be permitted to remain in the Harbor during the win- ter. This proposition was made to the Mayor, and after consulting with me he accepted the proposition and Mr. Keckevote paid the Harbor Master the sum of two hundred ninety dollars, who then withdrew his force of men and will make no further attempt to remove the boat houses, providing the adjustment as made meets with the approval of your honorable body.
