    Jan. 9th 1859 [1860].

    Dr Sir -- It has been publicly stated in this place that you endorse the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, as constitutional in its object, & in its provisions in All Respects-- You would would confer a favour upon the writer of this as well as upon many Republicans hereabouts by briefly giving your views upon the matter--

    Yours Very Truly
    A. J. Grover
    Mem. of Rep. County
    Com. of La Salle Co.
