LS possibly in John C. Fitzpatrick’s hand. DLC–JKP. Probably addressed locally.
- Enclosure not found. Johnson refers to Arrangements for the Inauguration of the President Elect, on the Fifth of March, 1849 , by Johnson, Jefferson Davis, and John Davis—the Senate Committee of Arrangements—which was published as a pamphlet without any publication information. It also appeared, with slightly varying titles, in the Washington Daily National Intelligencer, March 2, 1849; the Baltimore Sun, March 3, 1849; and the Washington Daily Union, March 3, 1849.↩
