Description
Colcord apologizes for the delay of his response, which "deferred my desired interview with Major Heiss." He writes that the major informed him that Norton's credentials are "of the highest and most satisfactory character" and that his prior contributions "to the paper was in all respects first class." It is Colcord's hope that Norton shall be given "renumerative employment on the editorial staff." He extends an invitation to Norton's family on behalf of himself and his wife. On printed letterhead of the State of Missouri House of Representatives.
