Jackson as President Of the United States. Mr. b.
desired that would write letters requesting the
bers and particularly ID. White, from this district, TO
consult with Mr.. Clay and vote as he might desire.
To this objected, and gave my reasons therefor.
Mr.. b. appeared surprised that ! should raise any
objections, particularly as was opposed TO the
lutous. lie said that a number of members OF both
houses, who voted for the resolutions had written
such letters and that could do II with propr'
