GEORGE B. HARRIS JUDGE OF THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CLEVELAND LEONARD J. STERN, BAILIFF COURT ROOM No. 6
May 6, 1932.
Mr. Charles W. Chesnutt, 9719 Lamont Ave., City.
Dear Sir:

I am enclosing herewith a nominating petition for Judge George B. Harris, who is a non partisan candidate for the office of Judge of the Court of Common Pleas for the term expiring December 31st, 1934. In order that Judge Harris can have his name placed on the ballot at the general election to be held this November, it is necessary that a large number of voters of Cuyahoga County sign his petition endorsing his candidacy. I trust that you can aid us in Judge Harris' behalf and have some one circulate this petition among your associates and friends, and return it to me when properly filled and acknowledged.

Thanking you in advance for any consideration that you might give in behalf of Judge Harris, I am

Yours very truly, Leonard J Stern Bailiff. ENC.
