Abstract

Handwritten letter from J. [John] B. Tullock, inmate of Sailors' Snug Harbor, to Captain Gustavus D. S. Trask, regarding his recent visit to the office of the Nautical Gazette, where he purchased three copies of the magazine and spoke with the man in the office. He describes a conversation wherein he suggests that the man is trying to draw him into criticizing Trask but explains that he thinks Trask is a better governor than Melville was. He denies being part of the group that signed the "round robin" [petition?].
