| On the occasion of your
severing your connection with this Company we deem it an act of simple
justice to state that your official duties have ever been performed
with exemplary promptness and accuracy. It gives us pleasure to
certify that so far as we are informed you have served both the
Company and the public in a manner entirely satisfactory to them, and
highly creditable to yourself as a business man, and a gentleman. We
regret that you have felt obliged to resign the position you have held
during the last five years in the employ of this Company but if your
interests are advanced thereby we can but say that we rejoice in your
prosperity. We wish you success in the ??? on which you are about to
enter, and shall but take pleasure in your advancement. |
