Tae compromising Col. was at no
time asked by the Nat. Com. to

to allow him to concur, and when
he heard how Col. B. had beaten

Qua3 sliranian proclamation,
"DAMN 1T, MAHONEl
If DE- ,- Objectionable to you at

!, must now be observed that
Gen. Mahone's paper IS only signed
oy VI. S. Quay, Chairman Nat.
Com. Col. Brady's is signed by
tie subcommittee. AS these other
gentlemen did not sign Mahone's
paper VAS at a loss to know why
they signed Brady's. l followed

Col B's aud. Mr. FOx's paper was

The now quite loyal Mr.. Fox who
writes of "kickers" with such cam.
