Dear Sir —

Theodore G. Shaw, of the first ward of this city, desires ^for himself^ the ~~appointment~~ office of a Notary Public, he tells me there is not one in that ward, and that public convenience requires such an appointment — M^r Shaw is an intelligent worthy gentleman, few more so, and if such an appointment is made by his excellency the Gov^r he could not find a^one^ more worthy of the office, ^[...]^ than M^r Shaw, your immediate attention to this will oblige

your friend ~~very~~ &^c Edw^d D Hobbs

All right
James Speed
