Dear Sir,
I understand that Mr D. Eland Wood is applying for
the Library Assistantship, which you are now advertising. I
have much pleasure in supporting Mr Food's em lication. Re
was an articled pupil of my own, and from the Library of this
Soolety proceeded to the University of London, rhore he has
done excellent work. Mr food was educated at Dulwich College,
Clasaionl Side, and brought to me very warm commendations
from his former masters. I do not think I know any young
man so well qualified as Hr Food, for the post he soeks, or one
I could moze warmly recommend. He le a gentleman and most
industrious and painstaking, and I may add, exceptionally
intelligent.
As an old Liverpool man, it would be specially
gretifying to me to know that one of my own pupils was doing
good service in the University.
Believe r.O,
Faithfully yours,
The Registrar,
University of Liverpool,
Liverpool.
