FOR THE MAYoRALTY-

quested to Be a Candidate.

The following petition has been eX
tensively signed and is now presented
to the people through the columns of
THE TIMES. 1t is due to Mr.. Lunsford
to say that the petition is published
without consulting him. The charac-
tor and standing of the gentlemen whose
names are signed to the petition give
sufficient guarantee Of the earncstness
of their purpose.
ROANOKE, VA, January, 1892.
William Lunsford, Esq, Roanoke. Va
In view of the coming mayoralty
election, we feel it our privilege to re-
quest that you permit your friends "a
few of whom append their names
hereto) the honor of proposing your
name as candidate for mayor of Roa-
noke.
Your long residence in this city and
we'll recognized qualifications for the
Office justify US in the prediction hat
should you permit your name to he
brought before the people, your cleo.
ton would inevitably result.

The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1892-01-24

We, the undersigned, deem it but just
to Mr.. William Lunsford to state that
he had nothing whatever to do with the
call that has just been made upon him
to allow his name to be used as candi-
date for mayor, but that the same was
gotten up and managed by us and others,
and that while he was cognizant of the
fact that some of his friends we're talk
ing such steps as they might deem ex-
pedient in order to bring his name be-
fore the people, he has at all times dis
eouraged the taking of active and posi-
tive measures, and was not aware, until
informed by some of US, of tho extent of
the work that had been done.
