Hon Richard Yates Dear Sir-- If there is a vacancy in the office of State Prison Commissioner, in consequence of the declension to serve of Hon Wm Plato, I wish to recommend for the appointment Geo. E. Corwin Esq of Batavia Kane Co.
Mr Corwin is entirely competent, and one of the best & hardest working Republicans in the State. Was formerly Sheriff of Kane Co and his appointment would be a very creditable one, and would
give entire satisfaction to your friends in this part of the State.
Very Truly Yours &c J.F. Farnsworth
J.F. Farnsworth Chicago Ills.
For appointment of J.E. Corwin as State Prison Comr.
