ALS, one page, 7.25 x 8.75, July 19, 1849. Letter to Secretary of the Navy William Ballard Preston, in full: "I have just received the enclosed letter from David Hudson Esq, formerly one of the Canal commissioners of this state. He is a gentleman of high respectability, now taking little part in politics, and therefore likely to judge more calmly than those in the heat of the excitement. As the subject of McAlpine's removal seems yet under consideration, I take the liberty of enclosing the letter to you that you might see how the subject strikes Mr. Hudson." In fine condition.
