| Transcript | CHARLES J. DOHERTY COUNSELOR AT LAW 346 BROADWAY NEW YORK CITY TELEPHONE 2289 FRANKLIN November 9th, 1911 Addressed to Hon. Henry George, Jr. 87 Hamilton Place, Manhattan. Dear Sir:- Though personally unacquainted with you, I take the liberty of introducing the bearer, Mrs A.V. Smyth, the wife of Dr Smyth, who was connected with the mint at New Orleans at the time when a loss was discovered there some years ago. Dr Smyth was compelled to make good this loss, although a subordinate was suspected of being responsible. Mrs Smyth is trying to have Congress reimburse the Doctor, who was practically ruined by the affair and there being no fault shown on his part, he is practically a martyr to the political system of his time, the subordinate having been appointed by him in the usual way; that is, through the recommendation of his party. Very truly yours, Charles Doherty |
