More than twenty states and
territories were represented in the
meeting, and we formed some very
pleasant and agreeable acquaintance
among the quill drivers from all Sec
tons. We really liked some of the
Illinois delegation first rate. The
Northerners, if courageous enough to
express their honest convictions
through their journals, can do great
good in correcting some of the
erroneous opinions of theSouth which
are prevalent in their section of
Uncle Sans domain. While we will
entertain pleasant recolections of
quite long list of the members from
different states, particularly will this
be so OF Messrs Pabor of Colorado,
Newbill of Missouri, Sleicher Of New
York, and Mathews and Scott of I'LL
nois, with whom we were more in
timately associated in committee
work than with any Others outside
of the Tennessee delegation. We
will also reserve pleasant place in
memory's friendship corner for
Messrs. Williams Of Missouri, Perry
and Brown of Michigan, Fletcher, the
new secretary, of Illinois, M,eks of
Alabama, and Lafargue of Louisi-
ana, and we will not forget Cappeller
of Ohio and the "baldheaded hum
mer from Boston," We hope to re-
new the acquaintance with all of
them at aOme future meeting of the
Association.
