Senator William H. Seward continued his speaking tour on behalf of Republican candidates in Cleveland, Ohio. Arriving on a dull and rain-filled fall day, he nevertheless addressed a large crowd in the afternoon, along with Benjamin Wade. An enthusiastic evening march from the local "Wide-Awake" clubs rounded off the day. (By John Osborne)
