Letter Of denial from j. W. Daniel.

RICHMOND, August 30, 1881.
To the Editor Of the Wing:
My attention has been called 10 let
ter in the Wing of the 18th instant, dat
ed Madison Courthouse, August 25th,
and purporting to give an account of the
discussion between Col. Cameron and
myself at that place.
The letter contains numerous errors,
but the most conspicuous and remarka-
BILE one is that found in the following
paragraph:
Mai. Daniel claimed great credit for
his vote against the Funding Bill Of
1871, but remembered to forget to tell
the people the reason Why viz: that
he was wholly and utterly opposed to
assigning any part of the public debt to
West Virginia, and was in favor of put
ting the whole debt upon basis in ac-
cord with the Constitution which he
contended, had assumed the aUhole of
the origirx.,. debt, war interest, recon-
struction interest, ana c6snrnnnded In
terest included. In other words, he
was opposed to funding the debt at
ALI"
This is utterly contrary to the facts in
reference to my opinions about the
debt, and utterly contrary to what I
said at Madison Courthouse, as Col.
Cameron and all who heard me will no
doubt bear witness.
I distinctly stated one of my objec.
lions to the Funding Bill to be that it
did not release and discharge the State
from liability for the third of the debt
due by West Virginia. if such liability
existed, and that I had taken the ground
then (which the Supreme Court of the
United States has since declared TO be
good in right and in law that Virginia
was not bound for the whole debt.
The whole paragraph is erroneous. I
never expressed the Views it attributes
to me, or anything like them. Very
respectfully, JNO. w. DANIEL.

no excuse for the absence Of any voter, and that
