A Curious 1848 Nomination Tale and Oddities
A historical look at General Taylor's 1848 nomination process, post office delays over postage, and the ensuing letters. The piece recalls Whig politics, Morehead’s notification letter, and Taylor's short and longer replies, then shifts to assorted 19th century notes on oysters, a Romeo and Juliet tale, Guiteau’s curse, parrots, fashion, baggage laws, and Paris beer commerce.
