About this Item
8pp. Stitched and partly uncut. Short tears at blank extremities. Good+. Yancey writes, "So many demands have been made by my friends for copies of the correspondence between Mr. Clingman and myself, pending the late difficulty between us, and of the basis of the settlement of the affair, that I have thought it best to print the following memoranda for circulation among them." Sensitive Southern gentlemen avoid a duel over Yancey's remarks on the floor of the House of Representatives, that he "had nothing to say with someone with the head and heart of the gentleman from North Carolina." Clingman took umbrage, inferring that Yancey was referring to him. The delicate, formal exchange of notes, with participation of seconds, Yancey's retraction, and Clingman's conciliatory words, are printed. Not in Sabin, AI, LCP. OCLC has not differentiated between originals and facsimiles, as of July 2024. Seller Inventory # 40294
