Manuscript letter, unsigned. "East Baldwin, [Maine]." Addressed to "Andrew Jackson Esq. / Tenesee [sic], Hermitage." 2 1/2 pp, 7 3/4 x 12 in. toning, 1st page nearly detached, 2nd page missing bottom 1/3 not affecting text).

Letter reads, in part: "Dear Sir, your unwavering patriotism & strict adherance [sic] to democratic republican principalls & with a firmness that none other than an honest man can have & seeing the novell desperation of men in the Presidential campaign striving to elevate a man to that high station...the wild & desperate attempts & the begardly falsehoods put afloat by the federalist to eclipse the only free govt on earth & establish an inflated nations money making with a high tariff [likely the Tariff of 1828] & an attack upon the southern slave population shedding weak tears on the distresses of slavery...." The author then continues referencing James Madison, Daniel Webster, and Henry Clay, stating his opinion that "H.Clay selling his vote to John Q. Adams to be made secretary of state..." an accusation related to the supposed "Corrupt Bargain" made during the 1824 presidential campaign.

Seemingly an unfinished draft, possibly written during the hotly contested 1828 Presidential Campaign between John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson.
