Florence. Colo. March 10. 1913.
Mr.. C. r. McLain.
Canon City. Colorado.
My Dear Mr.. McLain:
Your letter OF the 18th received, and
I was very glad to have you express
yourself as you did.
You realize that 1t is always easier
for the victor to be magnanimous than
for the loser. Our boys thought they
had just claim for the creation OF
Sunshine county. They were serious
ly In earnest. and consequently are
somewhat disappointed. At the same
time. they are the best losers that
have ever seen. and am sure you
can count upon them to continue. as
they have in the past. to boost and
pull for Fremont county. and every
thing that will benefit and upbuild this
entire section.
Personally. | have not the .east feel
ing of bitterness or animosity toward
anyone, nor have l any criticism to
make OF the actions of any Of the op-
ponents of the bill. AS far as can
see. the fight was fair and square.
and any little things that might have
been said or done in the heat of bat
tie. on either side. should certainly
be overlooked and forgotten.
My coat is on now. as II has always
been. for a bigger and a better Fre-
mont county. ANY time can be OF
any service to you OF to the county. or
to Canon City. all you will have to do
is to command me.
Hoping to see you soon. and with
kind personal regards. am.
Sincerely yours.
