H-2 1839, Mar. 29 Letter to E.R. in Europe from brother Charles in New Haven. Gives a "sketch of things political." Charles won more than half of the Whig votes in the city election even though the Whig poltical machine had put up another candidate, and thus his new responsiblities include presiding at town meetings and examining candidates for electors. Three full pages of political news on the state and federal levels. On March 30th, Elisabeth squeezes a few lines on the space left by Charles. She says that Harriet gave birth to a baby daughter and Anna had a baby boy. Also mentions that Helen Tracy & husband are moving to Buffalo. She again indicates her eagerness to read his article in the Biblical Repository.
