gentleman Row in this city was in Washington from
the time General Harrison inaugurated as President
10 the time of his death he is personal friend OF Mis-;
Clark the lady tie Globe pretends to quote for Its asser
lions that General Harrison was annoyed by his Cabinet
making removals against his will or knowledge during h
illness This gentleman conversed with Miss Clark daily
before the Generals Illness during his Illness and after h
death and has heard every incident of his illness described
by her knowing Miss Clark we'll he does not believe one
word of the statements of the Globe, which are pretended
10 be derired from her Ii completely at variance VIII
all her conversations with him. Miss Clark stated to this
gentleman that the General had been excessively distressed
by the wives Of the Clerks Of the Departments In Washing
ton going him. with their children by the hand, weeping
and begging the General not 10 turn their husbands out o.
office and these the ,rres Of still office, but who
knew that the conduct of their husbands had been bad
abusing the General before his election that they could
expect to be retained II Of these that
the General said he could moi stand it, II is notorious to
almost every person In Washington that there

ever during his illness Even his family had little ne
intercourse with him, except 10 attend 10 his wants; and
suie, did the medical gentlemen determine to keep him
that they would admit the Rev Mr. Hawley I'LL al
hope was gone. The Globe may be able to create the i'm
preston abroad that Gen Harrison annoyed by hi
friends during his Illness but it cannot do it in Washington
