Garfield', 2pp. 8vo., Hamilton, Ohio, Sep. 13, 1864 to Republican H. Y. Beebe in Ravenna. In part: '...I am helping Gen. [Robert C.] Schenck in his District and he goes to northern Ohio this week. I am sorry I have an appointment...Schenck is a glorious fellow and I hope he will have a good hearing. He speaks in Cleveland on the 15th...I wish you would send him an invitation to stop with you...I know the General is weary - and a good deal worn out...he would appreciate the hospitalities of your pleasant home...I hope you will not consider me impertinent...I have said nothing to the General...'
