Sir
I would respectfully apply to you for the appointment of Commissioner of Deeds with power to administer oaths and to take depositions and affidavits to be used in your state
At present I hold commissions from several of the states and territories, and designing to make this my special business, desire to possess if possible a commission froom your state.
I have the honor to enclose the endorsement of Gov. James W. Nye of this territory, and to refer to the Hon. J. J. Crittenden through whose hands this will reach you.
Yours respectfully
