powerful writer, subtle reasoner, keen satirist
an elegant and deep-read scholar, useful public

James A Hamilton, Esq. Washington.
Sr--in answer to your letter OF this date take
the liberty of referring you TO Mr.. Plumer himself
for any explanation of the statement in his letter Of
the 20th Dee last
The information which | received in the spring
of 1904 at w Washington, was entirely distinct from,
and independent Of that OF MIR PIumer part
of it was not that your father hat consented to be
placed at the head OF the project or to take part
in it, but that it had been communicated to him
with view to engage his corporation in it, and that
in the event Of necessity for the employment of
military fore for its execution, it was contemplated
that he should be placed at its head. My informant
to the best OF my recollection, Mr.. Uriah Ira
CIV, then a Senator from Connecticut-I say, to the
best of my recollection, because, at one of my con
versations with Mr. Tracy, on this subject, another
member of Congress, also now deceased, was pre-
sent, and am not perfectly sure from which of
them it was that received this information. After
the close of that session of Congress, being at New
York on or about the 9TH April. 1904, MIR. Rufus
King informed me that person had been that day
conversng with him and also with your father, 8
understood Mr.. King, in favor of the project but
that he himself, aud that he ! was happy to say,
your father also, dlsapproved of it.
This is all the evidence have that your father
was made acquainted with the project solicited by
others to join in it and intended by them to be pa.
