"Mr Chairman, and Gentlemen of the Com
mittee-I tender you, and through you 10 the
Republican National Convention, and all the
people represented in II, my proiorntest
thanks for the high honor done me, which
yon formally announce. Deeply and even
painfully sensible of the great responsibility
which is inseparabe from that honor-a re-
sponsibiity which could almost wish could
have fallen upon some one of the far more
eminent and experienced statesmen whose
distinguished names were before the Conven-

fully the Resolutions of The Convention, de-
nominated the Platform, and, without reasona-
bic delay, respond 10 you, Mr.. Chairman. in
writing, not doubling that the Platform will
be found satisfactory, and the Nomination ac-
cepied. Now, will not defer the pleasure of
taking you, and each Of you, by the hand"
The various members Of the Committee

greeted them with the cordiali,y and frank
ness which wins him friends wherever he
goes
