From the Goldsboro Republican and Patriot

Great Outpouring of the Democracy

Grand Rally of the "Tenth Legion" - Four thousand Persons present!!! The old 
Friends and Neighbors of William R. King in Council Assembled!! First 
Demonstration in North Carolina!!!!

The friends and former neighbors of William R. King held a grand council at 
Goldsboro near his birth place on Thursday and Friday last. They came together 
from some twenty counties of this section embracing what was so appropriately 
named by the eloquent Dobbin, "the Tenth Legion of the North Carolina Democracy." 
A native son of North Carolina had received the nomination for the office of Vice 
President of the United States from the Baltimore Democratic Convention, and near 
the spot of his birth place, his political and personal friends and the 
acquaintances and neighbors of his youth, turned out to congratulate each other 
over the honor conferred upon the old North State. Near the old homestead have 
his friends made the first demonstration of the campaign in North Carolina and it 
is worthy of the occasion and of the man in whose honor they assembled.
