Malta, Ill Jan 7/65

Hon Richard Yates

Dr Sir

I congratulate

you on your success

On my return home yesterday

after an absence of ten days

I found yours of Dec 27 forwarded

to me from Sycamore to this place

I should have been happy

to have been at Springfield

as you desired

However Alls well that ends

well - no thanks to De Kalb

Co as I am informed that

our member voted against

you in caucus - The Chicago

Tribune & Washburne patronage

were to much for him - His days

are numbered

Truly Yours

S C Hapgood
