Oregon, US-British War scare, 1845 letter

Item Details

Description

Heading: (Oregon – 1845 US-British War scare)
Author:
Title: British wool merchant fears war with US over Oregon, 1845 ALS
Place Published:
Publisher:
Date Published: 1845
Description:

E.Bottomley. Autograph Letter signed. Greenfield (Manchester), England. March 10, 1845. 1pg. + stampless address leaf. To his son, James Bottomley, New York.

As a Manchester wool merchant, his industry, beset by the worst economic depression and unemployment in memory, Bottomley, like the rest of the British public, had been "entirely engrossed" by domestic problems. Thus "little attention has been paid to the Oregon question until the present time", but "now it has assumed a serious aspect, and fears are entertained that a war will ensue. The British government shows a determination to support their claims, and our naval preparations, evidently for that purpose, are on an extensive scale..."
