Governor Rutherford B. Hayes to William Henry Smith, April 26, 1869

COLUMBUS, April 26, 1869.

DEAR S——:— Enclosed I send you a letter for Nixon to Delano. What are your ideas on school commissioner? Cowdery, White, Harvey, and Henkle seem ahead. As Lincoln would say, I have very little influence with the governor, but would suggest names in about the above order.

Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
WILLIAM HENRY SMITH,
