Mount Pleasant Meeting
Summary
The Unconditional Union men of Mt. Pleasant formed a True Union Club with E.M. Brengle, president; and George Wm. Buckey and John Diller, vice presidents. It opposes the Johnson Club that is using deceptive means to try to elect a “Copperheaded Tory” as register for the District. It endorses the action of Congress in refusing to admit representatives from the states formerly in rebellion until the proposed Constitutional amendment as been ratified.
