Abstract:
Julia/Juliette Burnett (1831-1898) writes to William Bosson (1806-1887), who is in Nashville. Misses him and was concerned he would get sick from the "excitement of the life with other disagreeable matters." "I can not believe that one who has spent the best part of his life in supporting those who had no reasonable claim upon his efforts is to suffer losses as a reward." "Col. Hall from Maine" is speaking tonight. Suggests Democrats have gone to Indianapolis for Greeley. Switching mattresses around when Bosson returns. Thomas writes about Hall's speech. Suggests he refuted "slanders against the administration." If Hall spoke in Tennessee, he would be able to persuasively "convert many democrats to Grant and Wilson." "He used Greeley and Sumner up."
