COLUMBUS, OHIO, November 9, 1869.
DEAR SIR: I am in receipt of your favor of the 6th inst. in relation to the appointment of State Librarian, and in reply I must frankly say that, as at present advised, the incumbent will at the end of his term be reappointed. If I had an opportunity to talk with you face to face I would go into the reasons for this course. I recognize the validity of your claims and under other circumstances would be glad to give them a favorable hearing.
Supposing your letters may be of value to you, I respectfully return them.
Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
GENERAL H. K. MCCONNELL, Yellow Springs, Ohio.
