The Bonn testimony on Lecompton bribery claims
The transcript of M P Bonn editor of the Afresenger before the Covedo Committee is printed on page one. Bonn swears he took $5 000 for influencing Lecompton support but asserts he did not perform further work. The piece blends this claim with coverage of the Democratic convention in Baltimore and related political maneuvering, including Douglas and Breckenridge candidacies, and the Rise of the Wide Awake Republicans.
