The Lake Steamship Supply Co.,

D——.

Gentlemen:—

Permit me to apply for the situation as shipping clerk, which I have heard is now vacant in your establishment. I am 23 years of age, and have worked eighteen months for Messrs. Scotch & Irish, retail provision dealers of this city, to whom I could refer you as to character and ability should you entertain this application. I left them solely on account of their making a reduction in their establishment. Messrs. S. & I. had an extensive country connection, and I have therefore had some experience in their method of doing business. I may mention the wages I received with them were $12 per week.

In hopes of hearing from you favorably,

I remain,

Yours obediently,

Arthur P. Jones.
