Book Description
Later copy of the original. Informs Ogden of the birth of his son, writes that Mrs. Knox desires her affectionate respects to Mrs. Ogden with an earnest request for her appearance here ... States that [t]he new constitution is the domestic want, and a pretty general war the European apprehension. Loving peace as I do I pray sincerely for the new constitution, believing that it will be the only means to keep the ship steady in the rising storm. Perhaps the broils of Europe and an opinion that we may be hurt amid the clashing of arms may have the affect to induce the people of this country to embrace the thing which will secure them against insult. Docket states Copied for Mr. Willard from the Originals in the Collection of Autographs of Ferdinand J. Dreer Esq. of Philada. Nov. 29 1857.
