no sort OF objection 20 it. and he thought
IL one Of the best things that could happen
10 Richmond.
The amount Of money that such large
number Of people would spend hero was
I'm itself a great consideration. and as for
the question OF accommodation OF the
negro delegates that would settle itself.
FOR the negroes of Richmond would gladly
entertain them.
General Phillips said further that he
had no doubt that when the time came
for the parade during the meeting, If held

would cheerfully tender the right of the
