Mott writes, in part: “Permit me to recommend to your favourable notice Dr. Tho. Andrews. He solicits the situation of District Physicians to your charity. Dr. A. is a Graduate in Medicine of the University of New York. He has been in practice for five years, & I believe him well qualified for the post he seeks.” Letter is affixed to a sheet of the same size. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, scattered creasing, light toning, show-through from adhesive remnants on the reverse, a sliver of paper loss towards the top left edge, and scattered light ink spots.
