James Hammond Trumbull / 1884 letter to young autograph collector reflecting

Description: 1884 letter to a young autograph collector reflecting on his own upbringing Author: Trumbull, James Hammond Title: 1884 letter to a young autograph collector reflecting on his own upbringing Description: On 7 x 4.5 inches stationary. Written from Hartford, Feb. 19, 1884, Trumbull writes, "My dear Mr. Rodgers, I comply with your request, and with pleasure. When I was about -- what I guess to be -- your age, I was shut off, for two or three years, by the doctors, from my work and all study; and was glaad to find ways of making the time pass pleasantly, in occupations even less rational than autograph collecting. With cordial good wishes, yours sincerely, J. Hammond Trumbull." Trumbull (1821-1897) was an American historian, philologist, bibliographer, and politician. A scholar of American Indian languages, he served as the first Connecticut State Librarian in 1854 and as Secretary of State from 1861 to 1866. Very good.
