Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1859-03-30
A Card,

Engagements of pressing character will
prevent me from replying fully at present to
the extraordinary statements of MIR. Massey
ia this mornings Gazette.
feel it 10 be incumbent upon me, how
ever, TO repel at once the following DECLARE
TONS as utterly false:
but one course is left me, and that is to say that
Col Z. f. Stuart told me not only in substance, but
word for word all that stated in that Convention
speech saving and excepting the part about tho
Democratic procession.
To show that this is not true. il ia only
necessary to refer to the following letter of
Mr.. Massey. az proving that he relied upon
me alone to establish one fact. as he has here
tofore admitted in the Gazette.
ALEXANDRIA, March II. 1859.
c. +. STUART. ESQ.
SIR: As the editor of the Virginia Sentinel has
thought proper in his paper of the 10th instant, to
controyett IL statement made by me in the late
Wing and American Convention, as to Gov. Smith s
kaoriedgs Of the party he addressing from the
Marshall House steps on the evening prior to the
election Of May. 1885, shall feel obliged if you
will state your recollection Of the circumstances Of
his making that speech. Your obedient servant,
WIN. d. MASSEY.
To this single proposition, / responded by
a statement of the facts, which has been sup
pressed.
If Mr.. Massey stated not only in substance
but word for ,rord what | had told him, why
did he conhne his inquiry to one point alone!
Mr. Massey knows that this was the only
point upon which ever held conversation
with him, upon this subject, and | have no
hesitation i'll saying that my last card in the
al ~ ,h.tar nf oil hot
ever said upon the subject; and whether
the contrary be affirmed by Mr. Massey, or
his confederates. denounce it as a wilful
falsehood. CHARLES +. STUART.
