experience, might be found serviceable Pray do not think me egotistical in thus writing but when I see the persons of all kinds that have gotten appointments, I find it hard to be overlooked, that even the poor compliment was paid me after discharging the duties of Coroner for Waipukeraushire for three years, of making me a J.P. I have too high an opinion of your generosity to believe that you will be slack to serve me upon the worldly principle of only giving appointments to those who really do not need them. I will not nore you more on this subject but will conclude with entreating your kind consideration of my unfortunate position, and your good offices, in procuring me some appointment, when an opportunity presents itself. I beg to remain my Dear Sir, very sincerely yours, G. Worgan.
