Item/Collection
Note: On March 15, 1851, Senator Joseph Rogers Underwood is
on his way home to Bowling Green from a Congressional session.
From Johnstown, Pennsylvania, he writes to his wife:
"I am now at this place on my way home If you have forgotten
where it is let me tell you that it is at the head of canal
navigation... We reached at about day this morning in cars
& I will leave about eleven oclock in the canal boat for
Pittsburg where we shall arrive tomorrow..." In a March
22, 1851 letter, Underwood is in Louisville, Kentucky, still
en route to Bowling Green! He pens: "I am here safe &
well but no chance to get home till next week. The stage is
full & I can get no seats." |
