Sanders to Lytton

I have the honor to submit to you verified copies of Testimonials
both as to my services in Austria and in England; and venture
again to solicit some direct appointment from the Home Government—or
that you will be pleased to recommend me in such a manner to the
Governor of the Colony, that I may
rely with some certainty upon obtaining, on arrival, some suitable
appointment, equivalent to the position I hitherto occupied—being
entirely without means, I should be running very great risk by
going out on the mear

chance of obtaining an appointment.

Hoping that the enclosed Testimonials may be found
sufficiently satisfactory and that you will be pleased to take
my application into your most favorable consideration.
