DEAR COLONEL: Yours Of the 93th uIt
came to hand this morning.
The circumstances connected with the
Back of EdwardsviIe, as developed in the
two letters of Governor Edwards, submitted
by you TO my perusal, will receive due consi
deratiOn
l am much surprized at the contents Of hi
first letter To you. lam gratified with the tx
pianailon you have given him upon that sub
Ject With Governor Edwards, 1 had no per
1onai acquaintance before the last winter
The opinion which l had formed uf his talent!
and integrity, from the official correspondence
winch had been carried on between us both ia
the War and Treasury Departments, has bced
coDhrinen ny prrsonal acquaintance.
The different subjects upon which he had
occasion tn ask my opinion CT decision, during
the last Session of Congress, were fairly and
caDdidly stated his comment npon then,
were Judicious, aud II afforded me great plea-
sue to be able, after due examination and re-
hection, generally To- coincide in opinion with
him.
The gentleman who has stated that was
UnfrirDdIy 10 Governor Edwards, has entire
~ mistaken my feelings and motives Of action
Certainly every thing which occurred he
tween the Governor and mysrIf was decided
y calculated to inspire feelings ola very d.
ferent character had every reason to b.
satisfied with him, and hope that nothing &C
Cured on my part to produce dissatisfaction
with him with any part of my conduct. he
iieye the only difference Of opinion that occur
red between us was in relation To the plgbili
W to Office of u minor. In that case, il wouIc
nave Afforded me great pleasure to- har,
thought with hun, inasDuch as II would hav,
enzbhd me TO have aided in DUNG an act high
ly acceptable to my friend Col M'Kee. Ms
inability to concur with him in opinion WA.
cause Of regret, and not of complaint. had
therefore, no possible cause of hostility witt
the Governor, aud assure you that never fell
any thing like bnstiity to him.
remain, with sentiments of the birhes
respect, your friend and most ohpdiept ser.
want, WA II CRAWFORD
