I
met those of our society who had votes in the ensuing election, and advised
them, 1. To vote, without fee or reward, for the person they judged most
worthy: 2. To speak no evil of the person they voted against: And 3. To take
care their spirits were not sharpened against those that voted on the other
side.

Thanks for the Wesley reminder. I MUST say, I have real problems with #2, but I will try very hard.
