the letter intended for insertion last week, did moi
I press.
Fe{loU Citizens Of Morgan County:
The many calls made on me from you
within the last month, requesting me TO
consent that my name should be placed
before the People of my county for re-
election, renders it proper for me to with
hold no lougsr from you my views upon
that subject.
DID hope that the Wings of my Coun-
ty would have moved 10 this important
matter at much earlier day, and that
my name would have been passed by for
this time at least.
1t will be remembered by you eli that
had beea allowed last Spring 10 con.
suit my own wishes, the name Of some
other person would have supplied my
place.
The great loss of time ! have sustained,
growing out of my las: election, would OF
itself, apart from considerations Of pecu.
mary nature, constitute sufficient reason
10 decline the call now made, but coming
as il does, and from those who have on so
many occasions honored me with their
SURFACES, / should do violence 10 my feel.
Lungs were not to yield to their wish.
Limited as my capac ty IS to serve you,
/ have nevertheless to the best Of my ludg
meet endeavored as your representative,
to promote Jour interest 10 connection
with what believed TO be the general
interest of the Siate--and Il in 50 doing
/ | have erred, trust you will be disposed
to sttrbute the error to the head and not
70 the heart.
Yonr call on me now, Fellow Citizens,
is Of itself gratifying proof, that my
stewardship now about TO be surrendered,
has been approved by those who entfusi-
ed their Interests to my care.
Tho coming Election is one of great in
tertsi, the Corner Stone is to be laid in
April, on which it IS hoped victory Ike
that Of November 1940 will be erected in
November next. In allowing my name
aga to be placed before the people as
candidate to represent them IN the next
House Of Delegates, beg leave to say 10
my trends that upon their united eXer-
tons depends the success OF their cause.
60 ioto this trying contest ready and vii
ling to do battle in behalf Of our pfinci
plies, earnestly hoping that # not beaten
at the polls, may be elected by such a
majority as will save me from tho cost,
labor and vexation of another contest.
In conclusion, let Us, united as a band
of b others in one Common Cause go be.
fore the people with the Constitution of
our beloved Country open in our hands,
and from our hearts and lips lei the truth
be told to the people, and a kind Proyi-
dence will crown our labors with success.
