Gentlemen and ladies of the Iowa press:
-"Our pleasant connections will soon be
severed. You will start on your return
home in the morning, and toward even
ing will continue my way to the Pacific
Coast. The many happy hours we have
spent together, and with me they have
been hours of unalloyed pleasure, and
will always be cherished with feelings of
the liveliest emotion. If in the feeble dis
charge of my duties as President of your
Association, l have given pain, attribute
! it, pray you, to an error Of judgment,
and not of inclination need not hide
from you the fact that the position | as
| sumed one year ago was one full of oncr-
Gus duties; but having striven to adj
vance your pleasure and comfort, l trust
you will forget wherein l have failed.
Thanking you for your generous forbear-
ancc, and trusting that your journey home
ward may be pleasant and agreeable bid
you q hearty good bye, and give you an
earnest God bless you"
