Walter, Cornelia W. (Cornelia Wells), 1815-1898. Letter to George W. Warren, [1877?] March 15.

Title: Letter to George W. Warren, [1877?] March 15.

Mrs. Richards thanks Warren for his history of the Bunker Hill Monument Association and corrects two "mistakes" at length. She points out that a fair in 1833 to benefit the Perkins Asylum for the Blind raised $11,400 in one week, and that she conducted the "Post Office" at the 1840 Bunker Hill Fair, but not as editor of the "Transcript" a position she did not obtain until after her brother's 1842 death. She suggests Warred had confused the "fairy houses" table at the Blind Fair with the "Post Office" table at the Bunker Hill Fair and gives several anecdotes of the latter mentioning Dr. J.C. Warren, Amos Lawrence and a concurrent "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" convention.

Palfrey family papers, 1713-1915

Title: Palfrey family papers, 1713-1915

Papers of the Palfrey family of New England. The material of this collection encompasses over 150 years of American history and many items of interest besides those documenting the life and works of John Gorham Palfrey, who is its central figure. A few of these may be briefly mentioned here. The papers of William Palfrey include letters between John Wilkes and the Sons of Liberty and William Palfrey's personal correspondence with Wilkes at the time of the latter's imprisonment in 1769-1770, including Palfrey's description of the Boston Massacre. William Palfrey's business account and financial papers are extensive and range in subject from accounts of trade with Virginia in 1763 to the disposition of funds of the Continental Army during the time Palfrey was Pay Master General. His close association and correspondence with John Hancock should be noted. Several interesting items pertain to the dispute between Hancock and the Boston printer, John Mein, which resulted in Thomas Longman's suit against Mein and the latter's imprisonment. The papers of John Palfrey deal mainly with his business affairs and the management of his plantation at Attakapas. However, several letters by his sons, Edward, William Taylor, and Henry William give first-hand accounts of battles in the war of 1812. Letters to John Gorham Palfrey from over 1000 corespondents form the largest single section in the collection. Of special importance are 377 letters from Jared Sparks and 148 letters from Charles Sumner.
