Letter to Mr. Chack addressing Problems with Oregon's Senator
-
Description
-
Letter was addressed to Mr. Chack from Sewell Green Rees updating him on the foolish politics he had witnessed that day. Sewell lives in Oregon; he had just been to the Oregon Senator's speech and had left with some strong opinions. Sewell states that the Senator and his other workers are not very intelligent, making foolish mistakes while also stating that he may not get much accomplished while in the Senate. The Senator does ensuring the people of Portland that Lincoln would soon be elected. As poorly as Sewell speaks about the Oregon Senator he later states in the letter that he, along with most of Portland, accept the Senator for better or for worse. The original letter is accompanied by a typed transcript. This is one item from the Rees Family Correspondence Collection, which includes many letters between family members in Oregon and Ohio.
