Fascinating group of nine ALSs by Rhode Island politicians, all written to politicians who served as cabinet secretaries, dating from 1806 to 1850. Includes: James Fenner (5: to Robert Smith, Louis McLane, Levi Woodbury (2), and James K. Paulding), John Brown Francis (2: both to James K. Paulding), Albert C. Greene (to William B. Preston), and William Sprague III (to Mahlon Dickerson). In overall very good to fine condition.
