My DEAR GOVERNOR AsHLEY: At the banquet of the Ohio Society of New York last evening, the President of the Society was, by unanimous vote, directed to ask you to furnish to the Society for publication a copy of your admirable paper on the passage through the House of Repre- sentatives of the United States of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution. In performance of this duty, I beg leave to present to you their request. Let me add, personally, that this formal expression was sup- plemented individually by every one of those present with whom it was my fortune to converse. I am sure that I speak for all present in expressing my individual appreciation of the greatness and historic value of that action of which you were so largely the inspiration, and in which you were the foremost actor. Yours, very truly, WAGER SWAYNE. Hon. 3. M. ASHLEY. NEw Yonx, February 21, 1890. GEst. WAGER SWAYNE, President Ohio Society of New York, 195 Broadway. My DEAR Si: Herewith please find copy of my address as delivered before your Society at the fifth annual banquet on the 19th inst. It gives me pleasure to comply with a request in which is conveyed so complimentary an approval by the Society and your- self of the address. I only regret that I did not have time to speak more in detail of the personality of the immortal twenty-four who voted with us, and thus made possible the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment. Truly yours, J. M. ASHLEY.
