It has rained all day. Well, this is a great day in the
States! Probably more depends on what it brings forth than any since Washington's
time. As for myself, though, I have no fear but what all will come out right;
am still in Vergennes, and have voted for Abraham Lincoln — my first vote. The
city's vote is as follows:
Lincoln 310
McClellan 15
Good! This is as it should be.
