Richmond, April 27th, 1860.
To Messrs. T. James Deane, Geo. W. Hobson, Deane Hobson, W. B. Watwick, Jno. Tyler, Isaac N. Cooke, and others:
Gentlemen: I have received your communication of the 24th inst., requesting me to announce myself a candidate for the Judgeship of the Hustings Court.  Although I know you have placed too high an estimate on my qualifications, I do not feel at liberty to decline the request, coming, as it does, from so large a number of my fellow citizens.  If it should be the pleasure of the people to elect me, I will endeavor to discharge faithfully the duties of the office.
    Very respectfully,
 Your obedient servant,
WM. H. LYONS.
