Lincoln May 5th[?] 1859
Dear Gov
I have been informed their will soon be a vacancy in the office of Agt for Penobscot Indians. If this shall happen I would cheerfully recommend the appointment of Samuel W. Hoskins of Old Town believing him to be a gentleman well qualified for that place[?]
Most respectfully yours[?]
J. W Stinchfield
