User-Contributed Transcription Petersham Jan. 26 1852Dr. NoyesDear SirIt is with pleasure I comply with the request of my friend Mr Nathan Kendall the bearer of this note by addressing a letter of introduction to you in his behalf, and it gives me double pleasure to introduce my friend - knowing the object which he has in view.Mr Kendall is a young gentleman with whom I have for years been acquainted and to whom I feel greatly indebted for the influence he has had in the education of my children, who have had the benefit of his instruction for several years.I consider it a matter of regret that he leaves the sphere of action in which he has been engaged so much to the satisfaction.But as he feels, duty calls his attention to another field of action and is one whom I feel will act well his part in whatever he undertakes. I trust his usefulness by the blessing of God will be no less by the change which he makes -- I hope he will meet with no insurmountable difficulties in what he has undertaken. Please accept our kind regardsJosiah White
