[This is page 3 of the letter:]
As evidence in support of these statements, and of my character, I beg leave to enclose to your Excellency, extracts from several letters.
It must be superfluous to say, that I shall be very thankful for this appointment, and endeavour to discharge the duty of Clerk [one underlined] to the satisfaction of the board: - but, in conclusion, observe, that if there is any prospect of success, I will immediately procure from Gentlemen of the first respectability in this Town satisfactory testimony of Character and qualifications for the official referred to; and from the known character of your Excellency, have hopes that your Excellency will pardon the liberty I have taken, to make this application, as well as the prolixity of this communication, and, that if the course I have taken be not the proper one that your Excellency will have the goodness to point it out to me.
I have the honor to be, With perfect Respect, Your Excellency's Most Obedient Servant W.m B Parker.
To His Excellency William King, Governor of the State of Maine
