Notes:

[1]"To the electors of Cuyahoga county: On the application of a number of my friends, I consented to become a candidate for the sheriff's office; but my desire to obtain any office has never led me to use, or to wish any of my friends to use, any improper means to obtain that object. I wish not to have anything said derogatory to the other candidates. I wholly decline being a candidate for the sheriff's office. (signed) E.
