Description
May expresses his hope for Webb to visit America. He discusses Mattie Griffith, Dr. George Barrell Cheever, and Dr. John Campbell and informs Webb that the Prince of Wales was rudely treated in RIchmond, Virginia. May speaks of the presidential election and informs Webb that he believes Abraham Lincoln will be elected. He attacks the United States Constitution and says that "If Mr. Lincoln is elected President, his administration will be an exceedingly cautious and conservative one. No abolitionist will be in the least surprised to see him go great lengths in conciliating the South." May mentions John Albion Andrew before stating the election results and the Southern reaction to them in a continuation of the letter. May believes that the South will do nothing in retaliation. He tells Webb of the death of Mrs. Edmund Quincy and adds that he expects his son to return home shortly.
