Abstract:

Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, February 17, 1930. The 1884 republican national convention was at Chicago in early June. The Connecticut delegation got busy for Hawley as soon as it arrived. It was under leadership of Augustus Brandegee, who had been selected to make the nominating speech. Years before, Hawley had not regarded Brandegee as friendly to him and had particularly resented a slurring remark in which Brandagee had insinuated that Hawley enlisted in the civil war to advance his political fortunes.
