Senator James W. Grimes to Elizabeth S. Nealley Grimes, September 9, 1863

Grinnell, September 9, 1863.

I am thus far on my tortuous way. We have very large meetings, never so large in the State before, and, so far as I can learn, the very best of feeling prevails among our friends. I cannot doubt our success in the State. The Democrats were never working so hard before, but we shall beat them.
