My Dear Governor,
I enclose my resignation. May I beg the favor of you to call a meeting of the
Executive Committee with as little
delay as possible & to push the resignation through. I must start for
Tennessee in two
or three weeks & have therefore no time to lose. I can make my
arrangements with more decision when I have the consent of the Exec. Com. Please therefore let me have it as
soon as may be.
I do not expect to remove my family for some time to come.
