CLARKSON N. POTTER TO S. J. TILDEN
"Thursday, 10 A. M. [1868.]
"My dear Sir,—At this juncture is it not wise for the N. Y. delegation to ask the Pendleton men whom they will support? If they answer Seymour, he must not decline. But I am confident it won't do to take up Gov. Chase until the Pendleton men have been consulted.
"Faithfully yours,
"Clarkson N. Potter."
