Philadelphia
August 16th 1852
Gentlemen,
It would afford me great satisfaction
to answer your kind invitation to attend a
mass convention of the Democracy of New-
Hampshire, at Hillsborough, on the
19th Mrh, by being personally present
on so interesting and gratifying an occa-
sion. But circumstances of a private
nature will not permit me to indulge
in the pleasure of such a []. [Without]
unnecessarily consuming your time,
permit me to congratulate you on
the happy [ans...s] [...dash] [...]
the Democratic Party foreshadowing
success in November next. The
triumphant restoration of the Government
to the control & guidance of the party
of the People, seems now to be
assured and certain; And unless
I have studied his history without
reflection, we shall have in
General Pierce, a President
who will during his administration
vigilantly guard all the provisions of
the Constitution and the Right of the
States from invasive and encroachment.

He will take care to serve the
whole Union and to preserve
the Union whole.
Very Respectfully
Your old [de...]
