Box 1
Abstract:
States that Bosson has probably seen his proclamation "convening the Legislature the 4th of July " which will be followed by a quorum in both houses. Brownlow anticipates that "The whole Johnson-Rebel-Conservative-Traitor influence" will make it difficult to pass "our amendments in the House." Talks about Johnson's "patronage" of "Rebels and Copperheads . . . in this end of the State." Brownlow requested aid from Fowler and Stokes, to help "make a vigorous effort." "It will not do to fail and yet there is danger of failure."
