bill when l was in the Senate and
have seen the wisdom of my oppo-
sition since, and nothing gives me
more pleasure than to see South Car

"With respect to inquiries made of
me concerning the relationship be-

received. Fearing that there was
some misunderstanding 1 wrote a
long explanatory letter to the Gov

upon this being brought to his at
