dc.description.abstract | A letter by Dr. Zacheus Bartlett to his nephew Freeman Nye, Champlain, New York, August 1, 1813. The letter comments on the war of 1812. Bartlett states that “this disgraceful and wanton war already has carried distress to the cradles and firesides of us—upon the borders of the Atlantic—God grant a speedy end to the authority of its weak or wicked authors’… a kind providence…cloths our fields with full crops, but a deep gloom over shadows every face, once the abode of cheerfulness…” | en_US |
