S. senator.- Can you meet the people of Stark - as early in the campaign as possible - and bring out such a crowd as no other man can. and help us secure two Representatives who will help to send you to the Senate in the place of another "Dick" who now disgraces our State by occupying a seat there.- We have not heard from "Tom" since the Evacuation of Atlanta.- at last dates from him he was suffering with Diarrhea and was much reduced by it. but was trying to do his duty.- Let me <hr /> hear from you as soon as convenient as to whether, and, when - you can be here.

My Dear Sir, A number of my Brother Toms friends have addressed me upon bringing him before the State Convention for congressman at large. If you can consistently, will you, use your influence to procure his nomination there, at least to give him a respectable support. Tom is not here to work for himself and perhaps would not do so if he were. but I am well satisfied nothing, (save the success of our arms) would be more gratifying to his feelings, than to know that such friends as yourself and Genl Fuller are willing to Endorse him as a thoroughly loyal man. While a few small men are doing their utmost to cry him down, during his absence in the army. If he could be nominated his officers and men would very cheerfully support him with certificates of "good moral character" but more particularly as a loyal and faithful officer in the Union Army. To you, I need not attempt to vindicate him. You know him well, and have <hr /> no disposition to doubt his loyalty, or you would not have offered to work for his promotion in the Army. I have written to Adj. Genl Fuller by this same mail, and should like to hear from one or both of you upon the subject. I hope Dear Sir, you will ponder the deep interest in a very Dear Brothers welfare, which has prompted me to trouble you with this matter, at a time perhaps when matters of so much greater moment are taxing your time and energies.

Toulon Ill. Dec 8th 1864 Dear Governor I Received your kind letter of the 28th ult. a day or two since, but have been unable to reply until today. besides I supposed you had already Received my last assuring you that our Representative Mr Dunn was all right. I called upon Mr Dunn at once and took the liberty of showing him your letter, and asked him to write to you at his earliest convenience. Which he promised to do. Whether he has written or not, he is all right. I have observed a dispostion in certain quartes to defeat you if possible in the contest for Senator, but I trust it will amount to but little. The Chicago Tribune I see takes what appears to me to be an opposition ground to your election. You do not live in Chicago. The Tribune is and ever has been an unscrupulous sheet, and can see no good in any man or thing outside the city limits, unless it be black. In their attempts to defeat you they manifest an utter disregard of the voice of the people, for I am well satisfied that nine out of every ten union men voted at least, so far as Representatives were concerned with express reference to your election to the senate. But what right have the people to speak, until they are advised <hr /> by that immaculate Journal. And there is time enough for it to tell them how the thing should be, after election. And they should aske no questions before. If they intended to oppose you, why did they not do so before the election. The truth is our people here knew no other candidate as I told you on the Rail Road coming up from Camp Point, and insisted upon pledges in your favor, no one but yourself was thought of and no one should be thought of nor will be when the Legislature come to an election, but yourself if the choice, the clear and unquestionable choice of the people is regarded by the Union Members of that body. I fear it will be out of my power to be at Springfield at the opening or during the Session, would be glad to go down if I could. but I trust what little influence if any, I could exert will not be needed. We have a letter from Tom dated Dec 1st, the day after the battle of Franklin, he passed through it safely, says it was the most terrific fight he has ever been in. Hoping to hear from you before as well as often after you go to Washington. I am sincerely Your friend James A. Henderson <hr /> Henderson Jas. A. Toulon Dec 8th 1864. Has seen Representative Dunn & he is all right. You may rely on him. Is sorry to see the Tribune coming out in opposition to you. It is always in opposition to any body outside of Chicago. The people are for you, & through their Representatives will surely elect you. Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

Dec 8th 1864 Dear Governor I Received your kind letter of the 28th ult. a day or two since, but have been unable to reply until today. besides I supposed you had already Received my last assuring you that our Representative Mr Dunn was all right. I called upon Mr Dunn at once and took the liberty of showing him your letter, and asked him to write to you at his earliest convenience. Which he promised to do. Whether he has written or not, he is all right. I have observed a dispostion in certain quartes to defeat you if possible in the contest for Senator, but I trust it will amount to but little. The Chicago Tribune I see takes what appears to me to be an opposition ground to your election. You do not live in Chicago. The Tribune is and ever has been an unscrupulous sheet, and can see no good in any man or thing outside the city limits, unless it be black. In their attempts to defeat you they manifest an utter disregard of the voice of the people, for I am well satisfied that nine out of every ten union men voted at least, so far as Representatives were concerned with express reference to your election to the senate. But what right have the people to speak, until they are advised <hr /> by that immaculate Journal. And there is time enough for it to tell them how the thing should be, after election. And they should aske no questions before. If they intended to oppose you, why did they not do so before the election. The truth is our people here knew no other candidate as I told you on the Rail Road coming up from Camp Point, and insisted upon pledges in your favor, no one but yourself was thought of and no one should be thought of nor will be when the Legislature come to an election, but yourself if the choice, the clear and unquestionable choice of the people is regarded by the Union Members of that body. I fear it will be out of my power to be at Springfield at the opening or during the Session, would be glad to go down if I could. but I trust what little influence if any, I could exert will not be needed. We have a letter from Tom dated Dec 1st, the day after the battle of Franklin, he passed through it safely, says it was the most terrific fight he has ever been in. Hoping to hear from you before as well as often after you go to Washington. I am sincerely Your friend James A. Henderson <hr /> Henderson Jas. A. Toulon Dec 8th 1864. Has seen Representative Dunn & he is all right. You may rely on him. Is sorry to see the Tribune coming out in opposition to you. It is always in opposition to any body outside of Chicago. The people are for you, & through their Representatives will surely elect you. Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.
