 Description: William Hodges Mann, soldier, farmer, lawyer and banker, has held many places of public trust, and the State of Virginia will always appreciate the services he rendered as a member of the State Senate and from 1910 to 1914 as governor of the commonwealth. "I have rec'd your letter of the 15th and regret the necessity that withdraws you from the field. You may recollect the opinion I expressed to you when you first proposed entering the service, viz., that I was not sure but that you were doing more service in your then position than you could do in the field, and that unless you could make arrangements for the favourable prosecution of your operations (at the Tredegar Iron Works), I could not recommend the exchange. With the same impression and belief, as you say you cannot make such arrangements, I have forw'd your resignation and recommended its acceptance. [From The Richmond Times, January 24, 1892.]
