equally interested, such Laws wore
enacted and in my opinion of
thought, have met with approval

tended to uplift the people and

have had I feel that [am in better
position to still render more and
better service t) the people of my
County.
;+ 1 am apxious to serve you again
in the General Assembly from our
County. not in any consideration
of money for, all one can get oul
of it is the consciousness of hav
