Hon. T. W. Bickett,

Dear Sir:--

In reference to your request of yesterday I thought it best not to name the two members of the Exemption Board for Pitt County, but I am giving you the names of several gentlemen, any two of whom, I think would perform the duties of that position courageously, faithfully, and without favoritism. I would recommend

Mr. A. G. Cox of Winterville,
Mr. R. R. Fleming of Pactolus,
Mr. John T. Thorne of Farmville,
Mr. James L. Little of Greenville, Jas. L. Little
Mr. Joseph R. Moye of Greenville, and

With kindest regards and best wishes, I am

Sincerely,

J. Bryan Grimes
