(ANDREW JACKSON). M.A. DARLING. Autograph Letter Signed, Greenwich, Massachusetts. Postmaster's Frank, July 4, 1833, to Michigan Territory to Doct. Dennis Cooley. "Old Hickory has been paying us a very fine visit, and had met a most cordial and hearty reception, in New England. The expense to the city of Boston and state, on his acct. exceeded $50,000. The rooms fitted up for his use, at the Tremont House Boston, were both splendid and expensive, and I must add extravagant. His Bed stead cost 

$500 other things in proportion; only more extravagant-" Rest of letter discusses temperature records and notes that the people celebrate Independence day "Often much". One page, small folio
