Should a vacancy occur in the Office of Indian Agent I beg leave to recommend Frederic H. Dillingham Esqr of this city for that office.
I have been acquainted with him for twenty years & have done considerable business with him, & from my own observations & his general reputation, I consider him an entirely honest, & very correct & accurate business man, & I have no doubt he would do the duties of the office kindly towards the Indians, & faithfully & justly both to them & to the State.
Very Respectfully your Obdt. Servt.
