Correspondents include John M. Baker, John M. Forbes (1771-1831), George Erving, John Treadwell, Jacob Collamer, Horace Everett, and Daniel Humphreys. Letters from Collamer and Everett focus on a Daniel Webster debate in Congress (1830), the decline of the Federalist Party, and the anticipated wresting of political power from John Calhoun during the Van Buren administration. |
