Having personally known Dr. Sidney for a year past, I most cheerfully recommend him for the position desired. Dr. S. was a Northern man among traitors when the war began, but lost no time in leaving a splendid home and rushing to the support of the old flag. He is thoroughaly sound on the Freedmen question, and I have no doubt would study well the best interests of Negroes and the Nation.
