THE PROCEEDINGS OF TWO MEETINGS, HELD IN BOSTON, ON THE 7TH AND 14TH JULY, TO PROTEST AGAINST THE NOMINATION OF GEN. SCOTT, FOR THE PRESIDENCY, AND TO RECOMMEND HON. DANIEL WEBSTER FOR THAT OFFICE.

Boston: Prentiss & Sawyer, 1852. 24pp, original printed wrappera. Very Good.

Disaffected Massachusetts Whigs can't stomach Scott, a war hero with nothing to recommend him for the Presidency, or Pierce, the Democrat. Unfortunately, Webster was dead three months after these meetings, so their choice wasn't so good either.
