Letter, Schuyler Colfax in Erie, Pa. to W. G. Brownlow, 1867 April 24

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 10
Identifier: I

ALS. Says that he is lecturing every night. Says that Gov. Geary will write Brownlow. Says that everyone is observing the attempt of the Democrats to secure the colored vote from you. Says that the same was attempted in Georgetown, but fortunately the ballot had a picture of Lincoln on it next to the union ticket... Suggest the same tactic may work for Brownlow.
