Ibis believed he is also a candi- date for the nomination to the next Congress. ‘The letter writen by Williams to Hoard was not hid under a bushel.

To thts letter Senator Williams replied rather curtly, denying the right of either Blackburn or any” one else to catechise him touching his private correspondence. Upon the receipt of the Senator's reply Black- burn wrote a second letter, in which he suid that inasmuch as the Senator had neither affirmed or dented the Inclosure he had sent him, he assumed the letter was genuine, and that he (Williams) was its author, He closed by stating “ You have de- Uberately lied.” After hastily writing the letter of which the foregoing fs the Substance, Blackburn conceived the sensible idea of consulting a friend. The one selected was Judge Carlisle, of the Cov- ington district. Carlisle, after readinz the letter, Would not permit Blackburn to send it, and acting under bis advice the letter was modified to chanze Williams with misrepresentation.
