Isl-v Choc-n OCtOber 21, 
Honorable Farris Bryant PERSONAL
Ocala
Florida

Dear Farris:

What little I was able to do for you in your recent campaign was
based upon my belief that you would make Florida the best
governor it has ever known. I have not sought your company be-
cause I know that there are many others whom you must see.

I have not requested favors becaue I do not feel entitled to
them. I have not sought to Influence your judgment except in
what I considered to be your behalf. I shall attempt to follow
these rules in our dealings after you occupy the Governor's
chair in Tallahassee.

Today I heard that you are giving consideration to the appointment
of Perrine Palmer as member of the State Road Board from this
area. I am unalterably Opposed to the appointment 0! Perrine
Palmer for reasons which I believe are also known to Carl 6. Rose.
My opposition is not to Mr. Palmer as a member of the State Read

Board but to Mr. Palmer individually in any position of honor or
trust.

I must confess that my opposition to Mr. Palmer is based on
hearsay and does not spring from my personal knowledge. I do
not know Mr. Palmer.

With kindest regards and best wishes to you and Julia. 1 am

Sincerely,

/?o/
