My Dear Sir
In the course of last winter I became acquainted with Mr
Hamlin of Elyria who I believe is also personally known to yourself. From his
letters to the Cleveland Herald and some other writings of his I formed a very
favorable opinion of his talents as a writer, and often spoke with him upon the
subject of being employed as an Editor. I again saw him last week and again
suggested the same thing to him, and he informed me that he was not now
employed in any other business than that of his profession and that he would
have no particular objections to editing a paper. Can you inform me where there
is a suitable opening for him? If you do [sic] will you please inform me when
convenient?
Very respectfully
J R Giddings
O Follett Esq
