Letter from John Nelson Lloyd, Lloyd Neck, to George W.

Letter from John Nelson Lloyd, Lloyd Neck, to George W. Strong, New York, discussing the result of the recent election in which Andrew Jackson was decisively reelected which had left Lloyd disillusioned with politics and pessimistic about the future of the country, Strong's report of a conversation with Albert Gallatin, the deleterious effects of intemperate eating and drinking, and the recent death of Walter Scott and plans to memorialize him.

Letter from George W. Strong, New York, to John Nelson Lloyd, Lloyd Neck. Having returned to New York from Wilton, Connecticut, Strong discusses his anxiety about cholera which is mostly gone from New York but continues elsewhere and which he worries will reoccur in the spring, the upcoming presidential election which he believes Andrew Jackson will win to the detriment of the country, meeting Albert Gallatin while in Connecticut by whom Strong was greatly impressed.
