Item Details

Description

"VEXED WHIGS" UNABLE TO VOTE FOR TAYLOR
Pro-Zachary Taylor election letter, 1p. 4to., by L. O. Hubbard, New Orleans, Nov. 24, 1848, in part: "...We left N. York as we intended on the 28th Oct. in the Southern…and reached Montgomery Friday night…did not reach Mobile till Tuesday the day of the election. You never saw 10 more vexed Whigs than we had on board, but there was no remedy and it did not matter as we found on arrival that our state was going to give 3000 majority for Gen. Taylor…". Very good.
