If we gain the victory By promp,i,udr, The
larger share of the wreath would belong TO us.
And why delay? TO wait for nomination OF v.

nave not sought information from '.Mr. Tyler and
Mr.. Tasewsll," who "have been refer, ed 10 az
able to subsiantia,e the charge" against Gea.

from the best authority, that neither of these gem
uemen has any personal knowledge OF the trans
action alledged to have taken place; that neither
OF them (and one OF them " as as intimate with
Com. Decatur as any mao bJeathins) ever heard
him mention II; that one OF these gentlemen Ube
ore last referred toy was at one time impressed
with belief OF story resembling IN some patti.

calculated but finding afterwards that his oriciS

win whom he conversed had ever heard it from
Com. d., he then lost al fuith in the truth OF
the story iteeii-and such is his decided impress
sion at the. present moment. We understand that
the other Senator did not hear of this story until
after his retirement from Congress- and then from
genemah who did not vouch for it "a falling
within his own knowledge; that at the house
OF gentleman in the town of Lynchburg,
during the fall Of 1923, he did mention the
report as new version of the numerous re.
ports which bad been in some way or other set
afoat-but he mentioned il in such manner as
indicated on his part a want of confidence in it's
Truth, and certainly in a manner not calculated to
make an impression on the mind of any one who
heard II: and as an evidence Of this, il may be
confidently pronounced, that neither of the two
or three gentlemen present has made that CONVEX
sation The basis OF his opinions touching the ap-
preaching Presidential Election; and though he
has heard that report mentioned, and seen il adj
veried to several times since, he has rarely ever
spoken OF 1t himself, and never with the pui pose
or In a manner to give it currency Such then is
