11376Boston; 5 December 1848. 1p. 4to. 25 lines.Very good on lightly-aged paper. Sheppard writes that he called on Dearborn the previous day but found him confined to his room by indisposition. He proposes his friend 'George Kent Esq of this city a Counsellor at Law' for the appointment of 'Messenger to carry on the electoral votes to Washington'. He describes Kent as 'a man of talents a brother of Ex-Gov Kent of Maine' who has 'been very active with his able pen in helping in this section of the country to promote the election of Gen Taylor'. Kent is a prolific writer and 'a decided Whig'. Sheppard concludes nostalgically that he has presumed upon 'the long past & happy days of my and our earlier life where the friendship of yourself & of your honored connexionns were so dear to me'. Boston; 5 December 1848. unknown
