Dear
Sir,
I have known Louis Dondino for the last four years and must say it is a
shame that such a man is in Prison. He worked for us about 2 years. I always
found him Honest and Peaceable. He had a boy about 10 years old and I must say
the was he cared for and provided for that Boy who was sickley (sic), was credit
to him.
I know if the Pardon Board knew Him as well as I do they would not
Hesitate to pardon Him.
The Man has very little Education and I think he did
not think what a tarrible (sic) thing he was doing. I could write a Volumne
(sic) about Him and Could not say one word against Him, only the act He is
serving for. Which, I am sure he was led a stray by getting among the wrong
people.
He has always helped His Parents, who are old and not in very good
circumstances. So hope for their sake and for the boys sake and for the lesson,
he has been taught that his pardon will be given to him.
Very Truly
Yours,
Securtiy Storage and Van Co.
