Your letter asking my reasons for
voting for Mr.. Lamar received. |
voted for him because | considered
him one OF tho best men In the south
for the place. He is, in my Judgment,
u broad liberal minded man, Of n great
deal of learning. He was professor OF

| think he is a thoroughly converted
unionist, and do not think II wise to
reject anyone Oh the ground alone that
they were engaged in the late rebellion.
! think that we want to be one people
politically and socially. General Grant
expressed the idea when he said: "Let
us have peace Mr.. Lamar's loyalty
aud integrity to the Union was passed
upon most cunclusivciy when both
houses of congress provided tor the
succession TO the presidency and made
, him an heir only a few rcmoVes from
the presidency. | am reluctant to ind
myself not IN harmony with all the
republican senators, but il was a case

tircly for my own judgment and con
science and l voted accordingly. Re,

bridge bill was reported by me to the
