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.

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.
