FOSTER GROVES LETTER.
Read What lie Says About Boys and
Look for Proof in the Future.

In last weeks Chronicle Ed,.o
Boys says the statement of Foster
Groves that he, Boys, said he would
rather see everything go to hell thar
have Hendricks rule it, IS every wore
of it falsehood. We have never
made such an expression to anybod,
anywhere nor at any time"
Below is Mr.. Groves letter t.
Thomas Medbourn, and the reader.
of this paper can look for further
proof which will prove that anything
the Chronicle says is unworthy o.
belief.
Millers City, Ohio, Oct. 6. 1907
Mr.. Thos. Medbourn, Culver, Ind
My Dear Friend:
Your letter of Oct. Bird was for.
warded to me here by Mrs. Groves
from Mentone, Ind. My folks live
there but | am not at home very
much. | will be here until the Goth oi
this month then | expect to return
home. You don't know how glad
was to hear from you | had expect
ed to write you a letter in a few
days. | was getting anxious to know
how you felt You have expressed
my views exactly, and l only hope
you and your friends will express
yourselves at the polls. | had a
talk one day with Boys in Tip
pecanoe while l was there and we
were talking regarding Mr.. Hen
bricks as county chairman. He said
TO me; I'VE WOULD RATHER
SEE EVERYTHING GO TO
HE'LL THAN TO SEE HEN
BRICKS RULE IT." Was not
that noble expression for a man
who was expressing himself as want
ing harmony in the Republican
ranks? That was a good way to get
it wasn't it? | asked him why they
recognized Hendricks until after the
congressional conventions: lust to
keep him from fighting Brick" i
said to him you fellows did wrong
You knew that Hendricks would not
work with you, but you fellows could
work with him. / have no love for
Hendricks personally. His getting
control of the convention and getting
elected county chairman is only a
part IF the program III all conven-
tons. If Mr.. Hendricks was smart
enough to down them; then they
should have been men enough with a
loyalty to the boys on the county
ticket Cor rather would be put on)
for the success of the ticket in Mar
shall county, to load in Mr. Hen
bricks wagon, starting out with de-
termination to again win the boys
out in Marshall county, as it should
have been and could have been What
would the honors have been for Mr.
Hendricks to have been county
chairman and carried the county Re-
publican? Had there been no more
honor in store for him than there
was for me it would have been an
empty honor. | can't do much to-
wards the defeat of that ring in Ply
mouth but will cast my vote and
what influence | am able to bring to
bear to the defeat of those RESPONSE
bic for this deplorable condition in
Marshall county. Let them under
stand thev cannot stab US IN the
back and expect us to be their
friends. | may get down that
Wdl DCfoiC CiC<tiOi CARC(t W
go out TO Frank earns some Sun
day and IL do / will let you know
or have Frank let you know and
would like to have you come and see
me. Give my regards to all the boys
and tell them | am with them With
best wishes,
AS ever your friend,
F. Groves

if | am not there Mrs. Groves will
forward to me.
