Dear Sir
I am a clerk in this office, and have been since I left the U.S. Supreme Court, Conference Room, where I formerly employed.
I do not like this city, and am very anxious to leave.
If you have a place, under you, that you can give me, I should like it very much. I think I would suit you. I can refer you to my records in this office.
"All I ask is a trial."
Please le me know what the chances are.

Very Respectfully
EC Homan
Washington D.C.
