Giving reasons why he would not like his name put forward as a magistrate.
Requests permission to submit JH's name to the Lieutenants of the Counties of Kent and Sussex as a Magistrate for the two counties.
Thanks for his kind and flattering letter. Fully understands why JH cannot spare the time to be a Magistrate, so will not submit his name.
