Abstract
Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, February 01, 1930. The year 1877 Hawley devoted to his paper. In the following year, there appeared in the public affairs of Hartford a man whose career was later to be intimately concerned with that of Hawley Morgan G. Bulkeley. In March, there was a caucus for the nomination of a candidate for mayor. Hawley presided. Bulkeley emerged as the compromise candidate. He had previously withdrawn his name from consideration. Against him the democrats nominated Judge George G. Sumner, who had declared he wasn't a candidate and at first declined the nomination but finally agreed to run. Sumner was elected. Later Hawley took the first of several trips abroad. This was in the interests of a commercial venture, the only one of consequence with which he was ever identified, aside from his newspapers. It was a manufacturing enterprise, engaged in making a propeller wheel for boats. There is no evidence that it ever met with great success. That Hawley s long absence in London worried his associates in Hartford is indicated by the letter he wrote Warner from London in August.
