No man appreciates nore than I do the support which vas so freely given in that contest. [ think I might be pardoned in callng to, the attention of those who roted for me as a source of pride in ;heir vote the results as shown by ;he ballots of my home people. Sdgefield county is my native coun;y, where I was born and raised, and n Edgefield part of McCormick :ounty I eceived 327 votes to my opjonents 147. In Greenwood city, ny home, I received 630 votes to i combined vote against me of-335, ind in Greenwood county, I received L,458 votes to a combined vote icainst me of 1.514. When it is emembered that this is also Mr. Aiken's old,home, I feel, justifiable jride in the above figures. There is no sting in a defeat that :arries with it the testimony of the egard and esteem of one's neigh>ors and whatever may be my future in politics I will never receive i vote that I will appreciate more ;han I appreciate the votes given ne last Tuesday, aft&lfc hope that I vill never do anything in the fu,-ure that will cause any man to rejret-the vote he cast for me then, i'inade my campaign on issues vital ;o the pefople and sought to enlighten tnd elevate the audiences to which I ipoke. Every man who runs a race vants to win and I was no exception ;o the rule, but in figuring the sumner's work I have no regrets. I ran i clean race in a clean way and the consciousness ui it is wurtii inure ;han a victory unworthily won. Respectfully, H. C. Tillman.
