Abstract:

Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, December 2, 1929. In the early days of Hawley’s coming to Connecticut, when Warner had indicated a desire for a writing career, Hawley labored with him eloquently in his letters in favor of the law as a profession. He pointed out to him how difficult it was to earn a living by writing, while on the other hand, if he adopted the law he would find time in leisure moments to devote to authorship. Hawley turned his back upon the legal profession in 1857.
