Dear Sir We have read in
your yesterdays issue Mr..
Aycock's s letter in reply to the
anonymous circular charging that
at Snow Hill last February Mr..
Aycock threatened that the Dem
ocrats could rule by fraud, etc.
We were present and heard the
speech referred to, and, being very
deeply interested in the candidacy
of Mr.. Aycoek, paid very strict
attention to him. His version, as
stated in your yesterdays issue,
is absolutely correct. We were
impressed at the time with the
way he put the proposition and
distinctly recall the language used
by him.
Charles B. Aycock poss esses
the distinctive qualification Of be-
ing lover of the truth, and this
fact is we'll known to all who have
associated with him. Among his
strongest friends and supporters
in this section. where he was rear
ed, may be found men who have
heretofore voted the Republican
and Popuiist tickets, and they
love him and will vote for him
for governor because he is sincere,
truthful and honest. The forego-
ing confirmation of his statement
/ is intended for those who do not
know him.
