I realize the necessity a newspaper has
for cutting down the text Of speeches

In fact, | do not write in a spirit Of
complaint But often, as in this in-
stance, the meaning Of the parts which
appear Is much modified, and ID some
places destroyed, because Of the parts
omitted And on subject Of import
ance and possible misunderstanding,
dislike TO have the public think that the
entire address with its continuity Of
thought has been reported The verbal
mistakes which appear are due, / am
sure, not to the errors Of the compost
tor. but to my own exeerable penman.
