Jointly considering the vice presidential
nomination. This opinion was freely
communicated to prominent members
Of the convention, both before it assem-
bled and while it was in session. In
the exercise Of its discretion, however,
it decided differently. When the con.
clusion was reached to nominate cam
didate, the unanimity and enthusiasm
with which the convention named me,
Is. Of course, exceedingly gratifying"
