Dear Mr Manning

It affords me sincere pleasure to have the opportunity of recording the very high opinion which I entertain of your attainments as a Practical Chemist and of expressing my conviction that, from your intimate acquaintance with Mineral and Agricultural Chemistry, combined with your skill as an analyst render you well fitted to hold the appointment for which I understand you are about to become a candidate.

Yours very truly,

(Signed) F. A. Abel

Director of the Chemical establishment of the War Department.
