Gov. Robinson
Dear Sir
Since you were kind enough to send me a Commission as Notary Public, our Board of Trade has selected Mr C M Wheat as its Secretary as it requires the undivided attention of some gentleman on account of increasing business, which I could not devote to it. The necessity of having some one always present to tender the affirmation of loyalty to new members, renders it most convenient that he should receive a similar commission which you will oblige the business men of our city by granting. I am still Honorary Secty of the Board, but
if there is any restriction on the number of notaries, I am willing to return mine or resign it in his favor.
With great respect
Yours cordially
James S. Wallace
