- Summary
- Congratulates him upon public approbation upon his taking office. Suggests that in the past the selection of deputies and the parsimonious nature of their fees has given rise to improper actions on their part. Morris should consult his most judicious friends to determine what proportion of the fees should be given to the deputies.
