- Fifty-nine residents living in the Brooklyn and Latona area petitioned the Council to prohibit livestock from running free in their neighborhoods. W. Chapman, M. D., wrote a separate letter describing the City at night as "one continual pandemonium of brawling cows and ringing of bells (nearly every other cow has a bell) and the fearful cries of cows for their offsprings, and the tramp of horses up and down sidewalks.I counted one moonlight night at 12 o'clock no less than 17 head before my door."
