Letter from Harriet Lane Johnston to Jeremiah Black

Number of Pages:
6
Date:
February 7, 1880
Harriet Lane Johnston writes Judge Jeremiah Sullivan Black to defending her uncle's (President James Buchanan) motives for distribution of offices during his administration. "One thing I do know," as Johnston explains, is "that if he had an office, it was not given to him as 'a reward' for having written a 'campaign biography of Mr. Buchanan.'" Transcript included.
