Mr.. Filcher writes:
San Francisco, March II, 1896.
w r Hamilton, Clerk Board of Su-
pervisors Sacramento County-My Dear
Sir: The copy, with seal attached' Oh
resolutions passed by your Board OF
Supervisors, in acknowledgment OF
nv services in behalf of California and
Sacramento County and its able repre-
sentative, Mrs E. Shields, at Atlanta,
has been duly received. Certainly III
these days, when there is SO much in the
busy world to divert attention from
what the few are doing to promote the
interests of the many, and where un-
selfish services, in this regard, receives
so little recognition, it is indeed graft
flying to know that your Supervisors
so fully appreciated the work at At
lanta in behalf Of our great State.
l rendered to Mrs. Shields only the
attention that was due a deserving
woman, far from home and kindred.
My only regret was that under the cir
cumstances I was not able to do more
In working for the success of Cali
fornia at said exposition / was only
doing my duty, and if my efforts re-
suited in satisfying those in whose in
terests Iabored I am abundantly sat
isfied.
1 wish you would extend to the board,
in session, my sincere thanks for their
kind expressions, and assure them that
with such encourag agement as they have
felt free to give they will serve to stim-
ulate me to further efforts for the ad-
vancement of our State. Yours very
truly, ]. A. FILCHER,
Secretary and Manager.
