Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, February 10, 1930. Hawley never got to be a very rich man. He was no money grubber. He did not practice law long enough to amass any wealth and when he left the Press to go to war it was not much more than earning its way. He came out of the war with something saved out of his pay, but no considerable sum. While he was in public office, he had the pay of those positions and the Courant earned handsomely. However, a letter which Mrs. Hawley wrote Warner at this time indicated that the Hawley finances were a matter of some concern, due perhaps to the fact that the venture into the propeller wheel company, with its attendant trip to England, had not yielded a fortune.
