Portraits of Jefferson Madison and naval dispatches
A fragmentary notice describes Jefferson and Madison with details on appearance, manners, and intellect. It notes Jefferson’s six foot two frame, white hair, and philanthropy, plus Madison’s modest dress and redacted legacies. A second item reports three U.S. government steamers poised at Walnut Street for Vera Cruz, to sail Saturday via Key West, named Secretary Marys, Secretary Buchanan, and Col. NellPennayican.
