C. W. COOK,
Attorney at Law,
DIXON, KY.,

Will practice his profession in the Circuit Courts of Webster, Union and Hopkins Counties.

Special attention given to the securing and collection of Claims.

Office of C. W. Cook
ATTORNEY AT LAW,
Dixon, Ky., Septr 4^th 1863
Dr Sr

At the last August election in this (Webster) County William Clarke was a candidate for the office of Jusice of the peace for District No 2 without opposition and received a large vote. There was a vacancy in the office occasioned by a failure to elect a justice for said district at the last May election and at the august election there had been no writ of election issued which I suppose rendered Mr Clarks election illegal & void

Mr Clarke is a man however in every way well qualified to fill the office. He is a union man of undoubted loyalty and his appointment would command the approval of the union men of his District. In view of these facts and at the solicitation of many of his friends I would respectfully solicit his
appointment to fill the existing vacancy in said office

Respectfully
C W Cook County. Judge
M C Davis " Clk
