Letter re the local support for Nullification in Charleston, S.C., and settlement of a friend's account, written to "the Hon[orable] W[illia]m L. Storrs," who was at this time serving as a U.S. Representative from Connecticut. Johnson reports, "the only disease of Consequence is Nullification - it is not very contagious ... few new Cases while the old one are growing worse ... If the city Election ... passes without bloodshed I am mistaken" and noting the arrival of [Governor James] Hamilton, "busy among his infatuated Crew" [Hamilton presided over the convention that passed the Ordinance of Nullification, 24 Nov. 1832].
