It has been received with exceptional favor as a valuable compendium of information hitherto unprovided ; useful alike for record andreference. We acknowledge with pleasure the courtesy of the Executive and Clerical officials in the different departments; also our obligation to the Congressional Directory; and the Boston Journal for its invaluable record of Biographical Sketches, specially reported for its columns for so many years, on file at the State Library. Ample commendation has been kindly proffered by many officers and members of the Legislature; a few of which endorsements we give below; while the courtesy of others is duly acknowledged and approved. G. F. A. Boston, 8 Congress St., January 12, 1888. My Dear Sir: I consider the State House Directory and Department Biography, prepared by you for several years, a useful and convenient handbook.
