To the Voters of Hamblen County;
It is doubtless well known to the citi-
zens of Hamblen county that I was
elected by the County Court, at it's DC
tober Term, 1878, to fill the unexpired
term of James Leftwich, deceased. 1t
is also pretty well known that j. N.
Bewley and d. Morris were liable for O
considerable amount as sureties for said
Leftwich. Upon certain considerations,
l agreed to pay the amount of their La
bility as such sureties, out of the income
of the Office.
It is now being industriously circu-
lated that l held out this idea merely for
the purpose of securing my election, and
that have wholly failed to pay any part
of the liability incurred by the above
named parties.
For the purpose of refuting this false
hood and indicating myself, herewith
publish copy of the receipt of j. NJ.
Bewley, which speaks for itself:
" MoRRIsTowN, Tenn, July IS, 1874.
" Received of ID. w. G. Davis, County
Court Clerk of Hamblen county, balance
in full of amount for which | am liable
as the surety of James Leftwich, former
County Court Clerk.

and uneqhivocal TO satisfy the most in
cre1ulous of the falsity of the accusa-
ton.
Very respectfully,

A CARD.

To the Voters of Hamblen County:
GENTLEMEN: In consequence of a
card being published by your present
County Court Clerk, ID. w. G. Davis,
dated July 18, 1874, 1 deem it proper
and right, and consider it my duty, as an
opponent, to present this matter before
the public in its true light; dealing in
nothing but plain facts.
In October, 1873, Mr.. Davis was elect
ed by the County Court to the office of
County Court Clerk, with the understand
ing and promise that he would pay the
liability then resting upon ]. NJ. Bewley
and ID. Morris, as securities of Jas. Left
witch, deceased, said amount being about
$763. In 1878. the Attorney General
informed the securities, j. NJ Bewley
and ID. Morris, that if they would pay
$500 he would not take judgment against
them. This $500 was raised by D. w.
G. Davis paying $500, J. M. Bewley 800,
and ID. Morris 800, leaving balance of
$500 unpaid. From that time up to July
the 18th, 1874, the date of Mr.. Davis's
card there was not a single dollar more
paid. Now he comes up and pays the
liability, resting upon one security alone,
and leaves the rest wholly unpaid.
With these plain statements before
you I am willing for you, as voters, to
decide whether Mr.. Davis has fulfilled
his promise made before the County
Court, at its October Term, 1873, and al
so to Jas. Leftwich and his securities.
Respectfully,
JEHU MORRIS.
AS to the truth of the above statements
l refer any one to the securities, j. M.
Bewley and ID. Morris.
