Description

ALS, one page, 8 x 10, September 21, 1852. Letter to James Campbell, in full: "I have this moment received your favor of yesterday. I have never doubted that Dallas would be pressed for the State Department; & there is danger on account of his standing in the South. My advice is that you should accompany Governor Porter to the North. You can afterwards visit Cambria, Armstrong, Butler & Pittsburg. I am glad you have determined not to be concerned in the case of the R. Road v. the Canal Commissioners. I write in haste." In fine condition, with light show-through along the top edge from old mounting remnants on the back.
