Goshen Feby 29th 1840
Governor Seward
Dear Sir
We are entitled to another
Master and Examiner in Chancery If you have not already
made a disposition of them it would be good policy under
present circumstances to appoint Samuel W Eager
Birth: 1789-04-08 Death: 1860-12-23
Master
and Peter F Hunn
Birth: 1794-05-20 Death: 1847-07-31
Examiner immediately should either of them
neglect or refuse to serve you will have other good names presented
In case they accept all will be right should they refuse their friends
will censure them.
Yours Truly
Geo. M Grier
We are all remarkably polite to each other in Goshen.
