LANCASTER, Feb. 9Th 1865
REy HNRr W BEEHER-Sir Il hardly
know how 60 address SO great man. You
said in a sermon. some time ago, that hon
cstv ought t. be rewarded | am honest
with my fellowman, myself. my God Can
get recommendations (the best) from Law
yers. Doctors. Preachers, &c Get me an
cassy (eic,) situation, that honesty may be
re warded.
To which append my reply:
My DEAR FRIEND The proper way to
address great man is the way in which you
would address any man who has good COM
mon sense. Never herin hy telling him that
he isa great man. If be IS one, he proba-
! blv found it out before YOU did and If he is
not one, You viii not be apt to make much
! by tickling his vanity by 50 cheap a compli-
ment
