 felt justified in raising his estimate of CAmeron's pluralities in the northern counties. He had a telephone message
 from Prescott saving that the meeting of Mark Smith there the night before
 was what is known as a frost There were about l5O men present, and no enthusiasm. The meeting was opened
 by Col. Wilson. who spoke for ten min
