Editor Post-Dispatch:-
/ Mr.. B. c. Crawford
and | arrived in good old historic
Richmond, Monday mo1ning,
10Th day of March.
We pulled ourselves together
got a hot breakfast, cigar, shave
and shoe shine. and we we're
ready for almost anythicg. We
took in a goodly portion of the
city and took in vaudeville
show at the Lyric Theatre, final
ly landing ourselves at $50 P. M.
at St. Luke Hospital in the quiet
residential section of the city,
some 3 or 4 miles from the S. A.
L. Station, on corner Of Grace
and Harrison St.
Here we went in for a rest and
general repairs.
After a day or two rest, we
got a most thorough examination
and were soon put in condition
for use of the dreaded knife.
We were operated upon by DR..
Stuart MCGUIRE and his able
assistants, Drs. Fravel, Williams,
and Barnett. We have been put
in great shape for a speedy re-
covery. To these noted and en-
inent surgeons belong the credit
of pulling us through with an
operation of such magnitude as
ours. We are now convalescing
and receiving every attention
possible from the Supt., nurses,
assistant nurses and orderlies
All in this hospital are interested
in the quick recovery of the
patients. Everything moves
here in regular order and with
precision. This is the ideal hos
pital in my best judgment, and
we are basing this on observation
and experience, having been a
patient here before. This hospi.
tai is full to its capacity all the
time.
We have people here from all
over the u. S. but N. c. always
leads; her people know a good
thing when they see it. Now
Mr.. Post-Dispatch, we will bring
our little narrative to a close.
Yours very truly.

Democratic Convention Snapshots
The Story of Nominations
BY A. H. VANDENBERG
The Convention OF 1880.

The democratic national convention
OF 1880 assembled in Cincinnati on
June 80. 1t resulted in the president
ial nomination of General W. 5. Han
cock of Pennsylvania, who had twice
previously been contender in the ma
tionaI conventions Of 1858 ad 1877.
Hacock's nomination was surprise
to the convention as well as TO the
country. 1t was due partially to the
doubt which existed down to the very
beginning of the balloting, as 20
whether of not samuel j. Tilden oil
New York (the presidential nominee
four years previously was to be
candidate for denomination. That ne
could have had the nomination if
such had been his aggressive desire, IS
s,,re--because it was the universal
partv belief that in the preceding
HAYES campaign. Tilden had been
actually counted out of the White
House.
But Tilden's refusal either to affirm
or deny renewed aspirations until the
convention was actually in session
(wben he sent in a letter which ltseir
could be read two different ways) lett
the party so completely in the dark
that hardly a third of the delegates
went 10 Cincinnati with Tilden in their
minds.
On the first ballot General Han
cock with III votes, and Thomas +.
Bayard of Delaware, with 153 1s votes
