Dear Sir:-
In answer to your inquiry regarding Carl A. Hammerberg, we find that he was in our employ from April 25th, 1919 to May 10th, 1919 and from February 23rd, 1920 to April 5th, 1920.
We know nothing of this young man’s personal life, but we can say that during his employment with this company his services were satisfactory and conduct beyond complaint.
Yours very truly,
UNION MATCH COMPANY,
