Iato Presidential election. II seems proper for |
me TO say that ever since refused to listen TO |
bls insane and ridiculous proposition to call |
nut 900 mon in order to put Mr.. Tilden |
Into the White House. he has never ceased |
IN misrcprcscnt my declarations. purposes. |
and action with n malignity which he |
