Personal qualities
are I fear too often
overlooked in public appointments. I have
not been unobservant
of the
young men &
good example this
have afforded the
Colony.
You
have discharged the duties of your present responsible offices with great zeal
and discretion.
You may confidently refer to me at any
time,
and
my
testimony
is of value that it is
has at least the
I have given it when it is deserved,
Very faithfully yours
Signed A.E. Kennedy
