Description
Holograph
The beginning and end of this letter are missing
Richard Davis Webb would prefer a portrait of "any of the Boston clique" to "those musty Puritan books," [possibly a gift of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society]. Referring to H.C. Wright's description of Daniel O'Connell, Richard Davis Webb does not think it would be easy to find "one who gives such a wrong impression by his flying style." He does not consider O'Connell "a morally great man." He inquires about Thomas Davis. Some of N.P. Roger's writing "wants the sparkling brilliance of other days."
