Dear Governor:
I will see what I can do towards furthering the desires of your friend Mr. Ambrose Monell. At the moment, I cannot think of more efficient service that the one he proposes.
I take it that the plant which he desires to construct and operate is to be wholly Government owned and controlled.
I know Mr. Monell and share your high opinion of his ability.
Sincerely yours,
Magnolia, Massachussetts
