shall vote for Granr now and obey Instructions
1 can subscribe to about all that Gen Beaver

The highest estimate Of the Blaine party In
the delegation that have heard is seventeen,
3nt hardly think there are more thnn ten.
There will be come wrangling in the caucus, hut

shall accept the result and abide by the instruc'
dons, think. Personally. am for Blaine"
