Bradbury writes passionately about 1864 election politics, expressing disdain for the campaigns of Gen. McClellan and Gen. Frémont, and suggesting that Lincoln is "entitled" to reelection. He also comments on Union forces capturing Mobile, AL and Atlanta, GA, and he gives the prices of food staples.
