Your statement of the expenditures is
quite satisfactory, and whatever may be necessary to do
in settling with McDonald & Co., or Gov. Black, or
others, of course, you will feel yourself at liberty to do,
so as to fulfil all contracts. Some of the items which
have been paid do not belong to us as a State Com-
mittee to pay Mr. Gibson's salary, &c.
We have had another communication
from Maude since our last to you; it was dated New
York. He stated that he had not yet met you; that
you were absent, he thought, when he was at Washing-
ton. He had been in New England, arranging about
newspapers, and writes quite encouragingly. We are
greatly pleased at the interest which he continues to
manifest, and we trust that the spirit which he has
had prompting him in his labors in this direction
will continue to rest upon him. We hope you will
be able to see him and learn from him all that
ignorance that prevails upon our question.
