efforts to pledge its enthusiastic support at
home.
Col Haskins seconded this motion and
said it was q credit to the town to have the
name Of one of its citizens mentioned
for the office, it would be of more
credit to have Col. Fuller nominated, and
if nominated we would have a live govern
or here at home, as we now have an ex-
