Attributed to Gamaliel Bradford in Checklist Amer. imprints.

Dated (p. 26): "September 2, 1835."

"The following letter appeared in the Boston courier, a short time after the meeting in Faneuil Hall, to which it referred--long enough ago to be forgotten by all but a few friends of the writer, who thought some of the reminiscences contained in it might be usefully republished at this time in a less ephemeral form. The name of the writer is not now attached to it for the reason originally given in the letter itself. It could add nothing to the weight of any statements or opinions contained in the article, which, being such as he would never be ashamed to avow, he has no hesitation in thus publishing anonymously. A few notes are added, which seemed to be needed in the advancing state of the subject in the public interest."--Pref., p. [3].
