Dear Sir.
It is my present intention to enter upon the practice of the Law in St Louis this winter.
May I be permitted to use your name as a reference. Of course you are not expected to know much of my professional attainments. Perhaps you may be able to say something as to my general qualifications; such as intelligence, industry, honesty &c.
Please let me know as soon as may be, & be sure you will add another to many acts of kindness shown to
Your friend
