LETTERS FROM MR.. GILES TO MR.. ADAMS.
During the Session Of Congress, 'vh'ch commenced


Nouember7 7, 1903.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 1, 1908.
Dear Sir Permit me, in the undsguiscd spirit
of friendship express to you my regrets at not
meeting YOU in the Senate Chamber this morning.
| regret your ABSENCE not only on account OF the
Measure had some time since anticipated by CO.
operating with you in pursuing such measures as
might be deemed hest calculated to promote the gen.
eral welfare; but account OF the actual loss our
country has sustained in being deprived OF your i'm
porant services at the moment, too, when II stands
most in need of them.


also regret to find that the purity and disinter-
estedness OF the motives which dictated your late
public conduct, and which, with great pleasure can
attest. should not have shielded you from the most
unmeri,ed reproaches.


Rat in times like these, when the passions are slim
ulated into action by so many concurfins causes,
truth and Justice seem be totally dlsregarded, and
pryae character to be the sport OF party sensibi-
tv. Indeed, the holy temple itself does not seem
too sacred for proclamation by the mad ambition OF ln-
fnriated denagogues. lconldently hope, however,
that our country will not long sustain the loss OF
xour able and unremitted excrtlons IN ITS favor
but that. as soon as the public delu1lon shall have
vanished you will again appear upon the theatre OF
pnblic life, supported by an increased confidence OF
the Nation, and thus enabled 10 render 1t still grea
tor services than YOU have heretofore done. "A con
6dence necessarily resulting from. judioious. anc
;ndependent conduct you have lately manifested, no
only to the American people, but TO the world.


Be p!eased sir, to accept assurances OF my higt
consideration and sincere personal regard, &c
VIM. B. GILES.


JouN O. ADAMS, Boston.
