{"value"=>"Thinks that every freeman who comes under the bill of rights and takes the test has a right to vote, notwithstanding the late law; Mr. [James] Wilson and G. Ross are of the same opinion; expects they will do well here, if the leaders can be kept from attempting too much; they may carry him in their ticket, but by dropping him they could unite all parties and run any three men they chose; hopes to see such a representation as will restore tranquility and union to the state."}
