TO THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION TO NOMI-
NATE A CANDIDATE FOR RECORDER OF
DEEDS:
GENTLEMEN Among the names which will be
presented you for the ofce OF Recorder OF Deeds
no nomination will give more satisfaction than that
OF General CHARLES II. T. COELIS. His energy
in the last campaign as Chairman OF the Soldiers
and Sailors State Central Committee contributed in
no small degree to our success in October and
November, 1868, and his untiring devotion and
fidelity to Republican principles upon all occasions
entte him to the consideration and Endorsement OF
the members OF the Republican party.
We believe his nomination would be lust ac-
acknowledgement OF his services to the country during
the Rebellion and proper recognition of the claims
OF his comrades.
