Title:
Three fragments of correspondence from Samuel May, to John Bishop Estlin, [1848]
Description:
The first fragment consists of a partial envelope that is postmarked March 26, 1848 at Liverpool, and addressed to John Bishop Estlin at 47 Park Street. May's writing on the reverse of the envelope briefly discusses a statement by Reverend Livermore of Keene that James K. Polk was elected by the immigrant vote.
