Papers, 1828-1848 and n.d.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/39224312

Collection consists of Hoit's political papers and abolitionists' letters to him. The contents concern the tariff, Jackson campaign, anti-slavery sentiments and strategy, and the Liberty Party. One document appears to be a draft or copy of a memorandum from a Liberty Party, Home Squadron, candidate accepting the nomination. The candidate sets forth his answers to questions about the monetary affairs of the country, the act of Congress for the distribution of the proceeds of public lands, the establishment of the Home Squadron, and the tariff. Correspondents include a number of congressmen, especially N.H. politicians. Some of these are David Barker, Jr., John Parker Hale, Amos Tuck, and Nathaniel Rogers. One letter contains a vivid description of a physical scuffle between two House members, Bell and Turney.
