Portland Novr. 16. 1820.

His Excy Wm King Esqr

Sir, Permit me to acquaint you that Mr. Putnam the person appointed Register of Probate for the County of Washington has neglected to qualify himself & declines accepting the office. It is important the office should be filled. I beg leave to recommend Mr Aaron L Raymond of Machias as a gentleman well qualified to discharge the duties of the office & think his appointment would be satisfactory.

With sentiments of respect your most [?] Obt Servt John Dickinson
