From
FR P
Dr Odling F..
I have known Mr J. A. Manning
for many years.
many years as a Chemist of excellent standing
extremely
and as an accurate worker, he has had great experience in Agricultural Analysis and in the chemical working out of field experiments, from his general chemical attainments, special agricultural experience,
painstaking habits, and affability of disposition, I consider him
particularly well fitted to fulfill the duties of the office for
which he is now a candidate in a
highly satisfactory manner.
