Attention, McClellan Men!
Ritchietown, Nov. 5, 1864

Eds. Intelligencer:

I was one of those who attended the McClellan meeting at Triadelphia this afternoon, and while returning to this place in the train with a large number of those who formed part of the meeting, they often indulged in hurrahing for Jeff Davis. This is a fact that can be proved, if needed, by quite a number of my townsmen who were with me.

AN OBSERVER.

For testimony call on

AUGUSTUS RUSS,
EDWARD FRESSE,
LOUIS GRASS,
JOHN KNOX.
