TO MY FRIENDS.

Since my election, I have no
enemies. You are all my friends,
and it is your duty to consider
me as your servant and friend.
In our elections. we make a
friendly choice of candidates for
public servants, and when that
choice is made, all incidents of
past political rivalry ought to be
a closed book, and we should
henceforth cooperate for the pub
lie good.
It is the grossesJ sin of our
political life that we too often al
low ourselves to be controlled by
that unholy desire to reward
friends and punish enemies.
Personal and spite legislation is
disgrace to the state, and it
ought to be reproach to any
representative of the people.
May I never be guilty.
I am thankful and greatly hum
bled at my election by so large
a majority, and I take it to mean
that much is expected of me.
Hence, earnestly ask your sup
port and cooperation. Come to
see me and tell me about4it.

In Justice to those who sup
ported me, as we'll to myself and
for general information, | wish
to say that I regret my inability,
to make any thing like a thor
ough canvass. There were 26
Counties was unable to visit and
many 9th ers but partially. This
was most unfortunate for me in
view of the fact that | had not
been before the public for near
12 years, not since my last can
vass for Attorney General, and
for nearly 8 years had been in
private life going but little out
side of home circle. My inabil-
ity to make amore thorough can
vass was due to the fact that for
six months during the canvass.
I suffered and was in manner
disable caused mainly from an
old wound in the right leg re-
ceived while a boy soldier in
"The Army of Tennessee" be-
sides this, serious sickness in my
family also interferred. These
facts are also stated by way of
excuse and as my apology to the
people for not visiting those liv-
ing in many Counties and places
in the State, all of which I should
have been pleased to have done,
and such was my intention had
I not been providentially hinder
ed.
I want to say that. I received
the kinkest treatment from all
the people, all the candidates,
State and County without an ex-
ception and for all which | am
sincerely grateful. Not an un-
kind Word fell from my lips to-
wards either of my honorable
opponents and there never fell
upon my ears an unkind word
from either of them.
Ole of the most pleasant feat
ures of the canvass, to me at least,
was the meeting and forming
many new acquaintances as we'll
as meeting many old friends and
acquaintances of myself and fam
lily, by these and all these, | was

appreciate.
In conclusion I wish to repeat
that no words at my command

the lack of light on perhaps the
