Remarkable Letter From a Notable Man
John C. Hamilton of New York writes to W K Rogers on November 6 about Thurlow Weed and state prospects. He cites Louisiana, South Carolina, Oregon, and Florida as key to victory, warns of intimidation and fraud, supports a constitutional amendment favouring single district presidential ballots, and vows to defend the Republic. He remains vigorous at eighty four, as Ohio State Journal notes.
