Letter

I am afraid that our folks here
will not be very conciliating. They talk of S. Ames
for Rep. Talk a great deal about dignity.

Every one I have seen on both
sides I have advised to conciliation but
our side don’t like the notion.

Never was a better time for
conciliation. The Pres letter opens a fine
opportunity.

By the time you return
you will have ascertained the effect
which the letter has had.

If our folks make a prox
it will place me in a queer situation.
