COLUMBUS, April 29,
1869.
DEAR S——:— I rather
like your ticket. But Mr. Henkle is not a candidate. No recommendations are on
file for him, (a circumstance which perhaps ought to be decisive in his
favor!), and having said I would try to give the school men their choice, I
propose to do it if they can make one.
You don't say White
once. Warner is strong for him, and a good crowd of first-class school men. I
am in no hurry.
Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
WILLIAM HENRY SMITH.
