This is to certify that William Henry has been in my employ three years, as an aprentice and Moulder & while he was with me he was honest and upwright in all his dealings, and any time he may come to me I will employ him again, although like many others he was once led away and is now in trouble, but like many of my neighbors & friends, he was never know by us to have acted other than right. & we would recomend him to any that may desire to assist him in any way
