Correspondence of Allen, who during the Civil War years was a student at the universities of Wisconsin and Michigan and was later a lawyer in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. The letters, primarily between Allen and his wife, Annie M. Cox, reflect the viewpoint of a northern Democrat, a Copperhead, concerning politics, military events, Negroes, and the draft. The 1872 letters were written during a trip to the South and are an appraisal of post-war conditions in rural and urban areas and describe an unfavorable reception for a northern lawyer.
