-To O’Mahony from J. Warren-October 18, 1864

l8 October 1864, Boston. Encloses list [missing} of the names of the officers of the N[ew] E[ngland] Circles, F.B. Acknowledges receipt of commission for Owen J. Nash of Wilton, New Hampshire. Mr Hynes is doing well 'and has a rich field on which to work. I would recommend the necessity of appointing another organizer for the N[ew] E[ngland] district as it is empossible for him to attend effeciently to six states which embrace such a large number of towns.' A 'smart man' should be appointed immediately for Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Vermont. Hynes would have all he could do to attend to Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. Should be borne in mind that there are more towns and villages in New England than in all the rest of the country. 'Our cause never was in a better condition than it is at the present time in this locality, and our enemies appear to have emigrated.' Numbers increasing daily by the adhesion of 'some of the best men in the country.' Mr Cavanagh would oblige him by inquiring if Major D. Mehan still resides at 4 Crosby St, New York, or, if he has left, where 'I can find him by letter.'
