Henry Watterson, of the Courier Journal,
interviewed by Tribune reporter, to the
question, "Whst do you lhink of Mr.. Hen.

answered:
II don't want to talk about Mr.. Hendricks,
but you can put ii in the strongts, language

with Mr.. Tiden. don't believe that Mr..
Hendricks has seen Mr.. Tilden since The
celebrated interview at Saratoga IN 1876"
