To John O. Steger, Esq. --Dear Sir; Believing that, in the present crisis of our country's affairs, the best and most reliable men should be called to the councils of the State, and knowing that you possess the qualifications requisite to represent the true interests of Virginia in the State Convention about to be held, we earnestly request you to allow your name to be presented to the voters of the city as one of their delegates to said Convention. Very respectfully,your friends and felity. While, gentlemen; I have confided my name to you, to be used as you may deem best for the promotion of these high interests so dear to us all, you must permit me to express the earnest hope that you will at once withdraw it when over the success of those interests and the cordial union of our friends shall demand it. Thanking you, gentlemen, for the kind and too partial sentiments expressed in your letter. I am, very truly, Your friend and fellow-citizen, ja 17--ts John O. Steger.
