Potts Could Not Accept In a recent issue of your paper some friend has kindly suggested my name in connection with the next legislative ticket for this county. Whilst it would afford me great pleasure to represent the grand old county of Mecklenburg in the next Legislature, my business interests are such that I could not possibly accept the nomination if tendered. Thanking the friend for presenting my name, and wishing the Democratic party much success in the coming election, I remain Respectfully, J.W.
