About this Item

Printed broadside, 7-3/4" x 9-3/4". Light wear, Very Good. Verso addressed in ink manuscript to John M. Wyse of Pikesville, Baltimore County, with postal cancel and docket. Signed in type by Reverdy Johnson, Col. Samuel Moore, Richard Frisby, Dabney S. Carr, Charles Salmon, John P. Kennedy, John Thomas, Gen. G.H. Steuart, William Price, F.P., David Burke, Col. Stiles, Isaac Phillips, Charles Jessop, Samuel Keerl, and Philip Laurenson. The Friends of Jackson held a convention in Baltimore on May 22, 1827. John P. Kennedy, later a Whig, supported Jackson in the 1828 elections; but vigorously opposed him after Jackson declared war on the Bank of the United States. Reverdy Johnson, one of the great lawyers of the 19th century, defended Mary Surratt, the slaveowners in the Dred Scott case, and the accused Klan members in the post-War Ku Klux trials, in addition to many other interesting trials. A Union Democrat, he was a fixture in Maryland and national politics for years. Not located on OCLC as of December 2021. Seller Inventory # 34389
