Broadside, 9-1/4" x 17-1/2". Printed in three columns, each separated by a rule. Signed and dated in type at the end. A couple of blotches at the blank upper margin, else Very Good. This rare broadside scolds Free Soil men who rejected their Convention's nomination of Orin Fowler for Congress, and hence "bolted" the Party. No justification exists to oppose Fowler, who has courageously arrayed himself against Daniel Webster's flirtations with the Slave Power. Fowler is "fully and radically Free Soil." Purists who oppose Fowler because he was not a Free Soil man in the 1830s are foolish; opposition may "seriously injure your party." Not in Sabin, LCP, Dumond. OCLC 48405012 [2- MA Hist. Soc., Brown], 210310696 [1- AAS] as of May 2025.
