The majority in Crockett's district were in favor of Jackson.
The time came for a new election of a representative.

Crockett made every effort, in his old style, to secure the vote.

He appeared at the gatherings in his garb as a bear-hunter, with his rifle on his shoulder.

He brought 'coonskins to buy whiskey to treat his friends.

A 'coonskin in the currency of that country was considered the equivalent for twenty-five cents.
