FOOTNOTES:
[56] Rochester Union and Advertiser, of which Purcell was promoter.
[57] Mr. George W. Smith, my colleague as Executor of Mr. Tilden's Estate and at the date of the following letter his private Secretary, writes me:
"The horse General Dix refers to, and which he had in Virginia, was a gray horse, about sixteen hands high, and a remarkably easy-riding horse. Mr. Tilden, I think, bought the outfit off him—horse, saddle, and bridle—just before General Dix went to Paris, and paid him $300. Before the general's return from Paris, Mr. Tilden put the horse in part payment of another horse. The general never recovered him."
[58] An expert accountant employed by Mr. Tilden to report upon the bank accounts of persons implicated in the frauds of what is known to history as the Tweed ring.
[59] A lawyer who had been a member of the law firm of Brown, Hall & Vanderpool, and at the time of writing this letter was Mayor, and inculpated with Tweed and others in municipal frauds.
[60] A famous dealer in horses in the New York market from Kentucky, and who supplied Mr. Tilden with his best riding and coach horses.
[61] This no doubt refers to the nomination of Greeley for President.
[62] Mr. Tilden spent most of the summer of 1873 in Europe, his first visit to the Old World. He bore with him the above enumerated letters of introduction from Mr. Evarts.
