George Washington Lewis to Robert E. Scott

Containers:
Box 1, Folder 37
Extent:
1 folder(s)
Scope and content:

Discusses in detail the recent Whig Convention and the need for the Northern part of the Whig party to honor the Compromise and enforce the laws concerning fugitive enslaved persons laws or have a different organization altogether. But Lewis also does not want to coalesce with the Democratic party. He feels that Fillmore would come the nearest of getting the Virginia vote.
