Hon. C. M. Hawley,
Associate Justice Sup. Court,
Salt Lake City, Utah.
Sir:
The Attorney General directs me to say in reply to your letter of the 15th inst. that the condition of your health, as therein stated, is a sufficient justification for the leave of absence which you request—and it is therefore granted, as desired.
Very respectfully yours,
M. F. Pleasants,
Chief Clerk.
Leave of absence.
