COLUMBUS, OHIO, February 3, 1870.
MY DEAR SIR: — Your favor of the 31st ult. came duly to hand. I have no information as to the chances of an Insurance Act beyond what the general public possesses. If the appointment you refer to is to be made by me the considerations you suggest will have, as you suppose, due weight. When such qualifications are found, I need hardly say, it will be no objection if the person having them is also a personal friend. Of course, it would be premature to venture on a committal until all sides are heard.
Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
MR. A. M. SEARLE, Cleveland, Ohio.
