<br />
<br /> "This is to certify that I, T. Walton Smith of 215 Idlewood Ave., did not authorize
<br />~;Lr. David A. Pritchard, Jr., to use my name on the petition.his representative presented to the Portsmouth Plan-
<br />ning Commission at.the PMblic Hearing held on January 5, 1962, and had I been asked to sign a petition o~
<br />Pritchard's behalf, I would hav~ refu~ed. T~is statement further certifies that I signed the aforementioned peti-
<br />tion about t~ years ago only as a personal favor to Mr. E. T. Gresham, the owner of the Flagship restaurant. It
<br />was not my intention at that time to help Mr. Pritchard in any manner. Since my official duties and responsibili-
<br />ties with the Seaboard Airline Railroad require me to be absent from this city except on weekends, I will be unable
<br />to attend the public hearing in the council chamber on Tuesday evening January the 23rd. I therefore take this
<br />means of expressing my wholehearted opposition to the application for a use permit for Mr. David A. Pritchard, Jr.
<br />Signed: T. Walton Smith."
