Pendleton expresses his deep obligation to McMaster for his many friendly articles in the Journal. He realizes that McMaster has written them in an earnest conviction. He knows McMaster's appreciation of the duty of an editor to comment honestly in all things. No one knows the future, of course, but Pendleton is gratified beyond measure to perceive that his opinions and character have not only won him the confidence of those he esteems, but has led them to believe him worthy of the highest honors. He appreciates McMaster's regard in this matter more than that of any man. He is being continually misrepresented in New York, especially on the "greenback issue", and feels he has not had a fair hearing. He encloses a speech which has never been published in New York and if McMaster finds it worthy he asks that it be inserted in the Journal and twenty copies sent to him. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
