means ofexpressing to you my many thanks
for the vote you gave me at the last Munici-
pal pal cIaori; although it was not
enough to
elect mo, still it was a good vote con-
sidering everything. At the solicitation of
my many friends I am again offering you
tiny services for the Reeyeship. In doing so
feel, as a large ratopayer,I should have a seat
at the Council Board. I assure you, If elect-
ed, I will do my utmost to promote the gen-
eral interest and welfare of the village, hav-
ing due regard for economy and retrench-
ment. As I cannot possibly make a person-
al canvas, owing to business engagement,
would ask you not to be misled by any stor-
ies circulated, as I am going to stay in the
field till the last vote is polled. Wishing you
a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year.
