Sir. 
I take the liberty the request of my friend Major [unclear text: Paramore ]  to name to you that he wishes to be considered as a candidate for an executive appointment as district Surveyor, he has heard that there has already some vacancy occured [occurred]  and no doubt will be many more. I deem it unnecessary to say any thing about the Majors competency as he has already performed a similar duty. I would name to your excelency [excellency]
