CERTIFICATE.
~As Mr.. Mills did, in his late
speech at Davenport, state that he had
never made political speech in Lyons,
but had made legal speech in which
his remarks were directed chiefly
against Buchanan's Ostend Manifesto,
We, the undersigned, who wish to pre-
vent any such fabrication being imposed
upon the voters of the District, we're
present at a meeting called for the pur.
pose Of organizing Fillmore Club,
where Mr.. Mills not only made an OIL.
taught upon John c. Fremont and
!asnes Buchanan, but sulogissd Fill.
more to the satisfaction Of bic most Or.
lent friends and admirsrs he expires.
