Shelbyville 5^th of March 1827

To his excellency
William Carroll

Permit me to inform you that
in the event that Abraham Martin
should be appointed Solicitor for this
district in the room of Mr. Fulton
resigned James R White of this place
would willingly accept the appointment
of Entry Taker for this County he
is a young man well qualified to fill
the appointment and I would be
glad if you think it right you could
confer the appointment upon him
as he is a worthy man - your friend
and humble servant
