DEAN GLoArINa Own l.INcoLN's
DEATH lon Wednesday night, Mr..
Dunnock, drover from Sangamon
county, Illinois, stopped at the farm
house of Mr.. Thompson, half way be-
tween this city and Indlanola, for
lodging. After supper Henry Clay
Dean, who had that day revamped
his drivel at Indianola, hove into the
same port, dirty, disgusting and
drunk. He said his speech had wear
led him, but that he had got some
good whisky at Col. Bryan's, and 1t
made him ssfoel Is good AZ new
With his usual impudence he stalked
up to Mr.. Dunnock, asked him who
he was, and began to rave about pol
itics. In the course of the CONVERSE
ton, the name of Lincoln was men,
toned, and his tragic death spoken
OF. Dean Immediately blurted out
that when he heard ofLincoln's death
''it filled him with joy" and that he
twas glad oft then, and glad of it
now" that "Booth did patriots
duty in killing him, only that he
ought to have killed him four years
sooner" This monstrous speech
brought Mr.. Thompson-himself a
Democrat of unquestionable school
to his feet, with the remark, "Why,
Mr.. Dean, you do not mean what you
say |" But Dean iterated the same
sentiment over again with still
more vehemence and malignancy.-
Mr.. Dunnock, who is an earnest Re-
publican, and was personally acquain.
ted with Mr.. Lincoln, could not stand
the pressure, and told tho old demon
that "no sane or decent man would
talk in that way" At this Dean be-
gan to roar and below, and to abuse
everything and everybody, -and
boldly said that his sympathiel
throughout the war had been with
the rebels. Mr.. Dunnock continued
| to fly hot shot into the old traitor
who finally burst out "The war wal
an unholy war,-waged against in
nocent people. Your hell hounds o
soldiers went down there and pillaget
and burnt property, killed innocen
men, ravished the women, and turn
ed a peaceable land into hell. No
one Of your soldiers had right to q,
into the South" In this strain b,
went on till Mr.. Dunnock told MI
Thompson he could not stand sucl
spoutings from the old wretch an,
longer, and as he was merely lodge
by permission, and Dean a guest b,
invitation, he would take his leave,-
would not stay in the house owe
night with such an outlaw under tn
roof Mr.. T., demonstrated, and trie,
to induce him to stay, saying he VOL,
provide separate rooms, but it wa
useless. Mr.. Dunnock mounted hi
horse and came on to Des Moines
reaching here at IL o'clock.
! Such is a plain statement of tn
meeting which this loyal man ha
with Dean. Wei give the version q
we received it from the gentlemal
himself and Mr.. Thompson, who hear
the whole conversation, four times a
long and vile as we have representa-
here, will bear proof to the Who'll
thing.
i And this man Dean is s:umpin

cratic State Central Committee.-Re1

A Letter From ID
/,
HARRISBURG, Iowa, /
October 2, 1868, !
Editor Courier.


The last grand demon
stration made by Jamison and bis
aHickories" was made yesterday
For several days previous they had
made great preparations to show
themselves son,e,ohers;i but as no in
vitation came from Moravia for their
attendance there on Saturday next
nor at Ottumwa, on the same day, .
courier was dispatched to Abba to
solicit an invitation to that place on
the day of the the discussion between
Messrs, Stiles and Bennett. Amin
vitation thus sought for was given
them to attend the meeting At Abba,
with the understanding, however,
that their friends in that quarter
were rery fe,o and far bet,oeen. Yes
terday the day for the meeting came,
and procession Of six or eight wag-
ons, containing forty or fifty Of the
Ever Ready to run from a droft)
Hickory Club, lead by the Blakes-
burg military band playing the Draft
Skeddddlers Quickstep, filed through
town and passed out on the Abba
road. Arriving at Abba they found
themselves surrounded on every hand
by crowd Of Republicans. who had
come in to hear the discussion, no
body but themselves to RdM for Sey-
mour and Blair, scores Of saucy little
Grant boys running roand telling the
citizens that all the oonvlcts had es-
capped from the Fl. Madison prison
rnd were thon in town for they had
seen them with their striped clothes on.
Of course the little fellows were mis-
taken. When they grow up to be
men, they will not Judge people BY
their looks. Dinner time came and
passed, but no dinner for tho poor
hungry " Hickories" as they had ex-
pected. Their friends were indeed
few and far between about Abba
Many of them, thus disappointed
sought consolation in the Glowing
Bo,ol" and found it. 5e
The discussion went off to the sat.
isfaction of the Republicans, but to
the sad discontinue of the " Hicko-
ries," as one of their number who
had been freshly uniformed before
starting in the morning, after bearing
the discussion declared he could not
wear that uniform any longer, that
although he did not approve fully the
course of the Republican party in
some matters, he had been cooped up
and starved too long in Andersonville
to now affiliate with the men who in
very possible manner gave aid and
encouragement ito those who had
charge of those prison hells during
the war.
The discussion over and the boys
being very hungry and tired-of Al
bia-they came away, many Of them
almost dead-drunk. They had three
or four fights on the way down, up
set two or three wagons, but being
too drunk to get hurt in such melee,
they finally reached this place in
safety, the home of the copperhead,
the rebel refugee and draft skedad-
dler. i's.f@ eege
Such was the reception given Jam.
ison and his crew by loyal commu-
nifty. VIII they ever want to go
Somewhere again? Perhaps when
they receive an invitation to visit
secess onvillc on Soap Creek. there
they will find spirits congenial to
their natures, where none dare modest
or make them afraid. ass
