Abingdon, Virginia, August 20, 1864.
To the Editor of the Richmond Dispatch:
A late issue of the Enquirer, just brought to my notice, contains some gratuitous pleasantries on my father. I ask of you, in justice to an absent man, the favor to state in your journal that Mr. George N. Sanders was never at a political meeting in Columbus, Ohio, and never aided in the nomination of Mr. John Slidell for the office of United States Vice-President in 1856, or any other office, at any time.

Respectfully,
George N. Sanders, Jr.
