To the Freeholders of Loudoun and Fairfax.

Mr Fitzhugh's term of service in the State Senate will expire at the close of its next session, and as he has declined a re-election, I am induced to offer myself as a Candidate to represent you in that branch of our Legislature.

An extensive personal acquaintance in Loudoun and Fairfax, formed during a long residence in each, a promise of cordial support from many freeholders, and a wish to be honored with the confidence of my fellow citizens, are the reasons which have urged me to ask your suffrages at the approaching election

WM. M. McCARTY.
