Okla, West Virginia,
Dear Bro. Griffin. We are all well
and hope You and yours are well.
| had hoped to attend circuit court
few days this week in Calhoun, but
Federal court began here Monday
aud also our Teachers Institute is
being held in this city, tbs week, and
hence could not get away.
If the Republicans nominate Old
Hiram Campbell for thu State Senate
this year | want all If my old true
friends in Calhoun county to help
me make fight to detept him.
Since writing YOU before | have
learned to my surprise that Scott
Starcher Supported ,hat slauderous
resolution against me.
He has forgotten that | made him
President of the Board of Education
when Squire Bmly was holding the
Office.
He forgels tina I made him Notary
Public and rode to Grautsville and
went on his bond.
He does not remember that / had
him appointed Post Master AID start
cd him in that work.
lie forgets that gave him trip
to indianapolis and got s3G for him
while there.
He does not remember that | an
pointed him committee clerk and let
him draw $3.50 at Charleston without
doing an hours work.
He IorgeIs that l gave him his
first certificate and started him to
teaching school
He can't remember that | furnish.
ed him horse to ride and took him
to Charleston through the mud and
hid him there while | got him law
license, without him ever seeing n
Judge.
He forgets that furnished him a
home at Beech for five years when he
had no home.
He forsets that | paid Lauehlin
$500 for 100 acres Of land aud then
sold it to Scott for $500 and let him
pay me in chips and whe.stones.
lie forgotsthat | saved him $500
worth of goods and $50 in cash and
gave him that li,tle Nellie mare ON
the clear for his little patch Of land
which | offered to sell back to him
for sixty dollars.
These, items are only abstracts of
what my speeches will be in Calhoun
county this year and | will call on all
OF my friends to help me defeat Hiram
Campbell and Scott Sarcher.
| will not be sneaking like they
have been, but will fight them
openly and publicly on the stump, in
politics and in business, unless they
mend the wrong they intended for
me and my family and friends.
| never expect to be able to do as
much for one Of my own boys as |
have done for Scott and how could
he ever think of doing me dirt after
| had taken HIM up from disgrace
and done so much Tor him.
Would such creature do for Just.
ice Of the Peace? God forbid. If he
would 60 back on me would he not
go back on any one else? Can any
one else ever do so much for him?
Any man who does not set DOWN on

is no friend of mine.
This is no secret. Show this letter
