This circular was published to refute accusations Judge Campbell made against Colonel Walter P. Brownlow. The accusations include that Brownlow had hired Democrats, and the rebuttal provides numbers to show the opposite. Campbell also claimed that Brownlow was afraid to campaign against him, but the rebuttal points out that he has to remain in Washington in order to maintain a Republican majority in congress. It also addresses the charge that Brownlow is neglecting to press for the pensions for old soldiers by referring to the paperwork these soldiers hold. It goes on to report that Judge Campbell had not voted for the last fourteen years, and had refused to campaign for other candidates when asked to do so. The circular isn’t signed, but on the reverse side it has been addressed to E.P. King, agt. Paul E. Divine, Tazewell, Tennessee.
