Mr Larry J Powell
New Hanover County Tax Administrator

Wilmington, N C 28401
Dear Mr Powell
On February 1, 1979, I visitea your office to express
concern over a late listing penalty which would be added to
our tax bill due to not listing our taxes by January 31, 1978
You informed me that it would be necessary to write a letter
to you stating the reason why I was late listing said taxes
The reason is stated below
Two weeks prior to the final listing date, my father was in
critical condition in a Fayetteville hospital, and was not
taken off the critical list until the evening of January 31
Therefore, we spent most of our time in Fayetteville, and it
was not until returning to Wilmington on January 31, and
listening to the 11 00 P M news that I realized we had not
met the listing deadline
I have been listing taxes in New Hanover County for aver 9
years, and this is the first time we have ever been delinquent
in listing
I hope that you will take the above into consideration, and
see if you can have the $6 00 penalty removed from our tax bill
Your consideration would be greatly appreciated
Sincerely,
(Mrs ) ancy C Williamson
