Concord, September 13, 1860.
My Dear Amos, —
Considering, as you say, the state of the weather, the news from Maine, and the
prospects of your party, I admire your pluck.
I hope you will, some time or other before you die, belong
to some respectable organization, having some definite principles, so that I
can vote for you.
In the mean time, I congratulate your little squad on having
a candidate who is neither “for sale or to let.”
Very truly yours,
E. R. Hoar.
