Identifier: CMMA I-1-m

Scope and Contents

Desiring to aid in McMaster's struggle for peace, he asks for the political inclination or bearing of the delegates to the Chicago Convention July 4. Their state convention will assemble Mar. 23 and since there has been an attempt to betray and mislead the people of Ohio with a quasi-war policy led by rotten stock jobbers of New York since last fall election, it will take their full strength of 185,000 tried and true men to keep from being in the shambles of those rotten things, Horation Seymour Lincoln and Co. They expect to send 29 delegates from Hamilton County, a solid unit against the schemes of Dean, Richmond, Belmonte and Co., and any information from McMaster that would help them hinder their opponents, would receive the lasting thanks of a true and right thinking people. ` P.S. He would not have imposed upon McMaster except that he has not received his Freeman's Journal for some weeks past and has no other opportunity of conferring with him. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
