First Edition. Typed letter signed. 1pp, on Maddox's law office stationery; Sept. 6, 1908; seeking appointment to the Commission for the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Park. 27 lines (ca 220 words); signed in full. With "Received" stamp of the Office of the Secretary of War, dated Sep 14, 1908; docketed on verso in Joseph G. Cannon's hand, with a ca. 100-word endorsement of Maddox's application.

On verso is Cannon's holograph statement, addressed to "the President," supplying the requested recommendation: ".John W. Maddox was for several terms a Democratic member of Congress from Georgia. He was one of the most efficient members of the minority & while a good partisan had the ability & courage to distinguish between partisanship & legislature.if I had the [authority?] I would appoint Mr. Maddox," signed "JG Cannon," dated 9/11 1908.
