It highlights H H Yorke’s support for Garfield and Arthur, predicts Democratic defeat in Ohio and Indiana, and uses the refrain As Maine goes so goes the Union to rally supporters.

Democratic rhetoric and wartime tensions spill into Defiance meeting
A wartime era report cites Blacksven the smallpox shipper to northern towns set to address Defiance Democrats on voting guidance. It recalls a Hicksville gathering marred by heavy drinking, the Garfield and Arthur club torches stored in a cellar turned calaboose, and hints at Greenbacker-Democrat fusion efforts in Indiana. The piece also notes a Hicks ville speech ending with a quarrel about loyalty and a Fort Wayne train delay overheard remark labeling Bill English as a petty figure.
