Dear Sir,
   I see from the papers that Doct Lewis has resigned his position as Superintendent of the State Road. The position has to be given to some one & as this part of the State has never been represented in the Road in any way I would like to have the appointment, I am needy & I think I could discharge the duties of the officer having been long engaged in an active Business Life could attend to duties of that office
   I can give you any reference you may desire, Please let me hear from you at your Earliest Convenience & oblige yours
Very Respectfully
J M Cooper
{I have no record of this man being hired.}
