Sir,
I have received your Despatch No. 71 of the 28th of July,
forwarding with a very favorable testimony from yourself an application
from Mr. Franklyn for employment.
I am sorry for deserving Public Officers who suffer bythe
the
reductions which are occasionally found indispensable. I will cause Mr.
Franklyn's application to be noted, but I cannot with justice to him
afford him much hope of employment.
