180334270Hartford: Hudson & Goodwin 1803. 7 1 blank pp. Disbound moderately foxed Good. <br/><br/> Skeel Sabin says is responsible for the attribution of authorship to Webster. The pamphlet attacks "the mad projects of designing men" Jeffersonians who favor "revolutionizing Connecticut" and who seek "to subvert the system of our State government-- to remove from office all those venerable men who have hitherto conducted our affairs and to fill their places with individuals from their own body." The author recommends a list of satisfactory candidates for the upcoming State elections. They include Oliver Ellsworth William Hillhouse David Daggett Chauncey Goodrich Simeon Baldwin Matthew Griswold Jabez Clark-- all respectable Federalists. Jonathan Ingersoll is listed as Chairman of the Meeting and S. Sam Smith as Clerk. <br/>Sabin 102333n. Skeel Appendix A106. Hudson & Goodwin unknown books
