Fitch, of Indiana, rose to present
candidate before this Convention for
the Presidential nomination, one of
the best and purest men of the nation.
Indiana had thought it right to cast
her vote reasonable length of time
for PendletOn. In the opinion of the
majority of the delegates the reason
able time had passed, though the mi
nOrity were still Of the opinion that
they ought to adhere further to the
gentleman from Ohio. The majority
had no disposition, even if it had the
power, to force their views upon the
minority. In conclusion he briefly
eulogized and nominated Thomas A.
Hendricks.
Rice, of Indiana, for the minority,
urged adherence to Pendleton, and
expressed the highest respect for
Hendricks, but the minority should
not go for him, because the State
Convention of their State decided
their preference for Pendletou,
against the most earnest and persist
ent opposition. And in accordance
with that preference, the delegation
resolved to stand by Pendleton so
long as there was reasonable hope
of his nomination. EGreat cheers and
some Kisses. - la-it
