tlal friends that he did not like it, and was
in great doubt whether he would accept the
nomination on that platform. This coming
10 the ears Of certain leaders Of the party
they fastened to call upon the general, who
stated to them his objections to the platform.
The Intelligence was received with no little
consternt!on by his visitors, who feared that
Grant entertained the intention of declining
the nomination. They at once opened upon
him with every conceivable argument they
could bring forward to induce him to accept,
one Of which was that the platform need not
be regarded by him in 20 serious a light
was simply an enunciaton of the general
principles Of the Party, necessary only to
make up the issue. Of the campaign. They
urged him to accept at all events and to say
nothing more about the platform. Many
other arguments Of similar character were
used it is said, which gave Grant to under
stand that they wanted him to accept the
nomination if even it had to be on plat
