Douglas writes to Hart, a United States Representative from New York: "A thousand thanks for your letter & for the efforts of our friends in the empire city. If I had a few such friends everywhere the battle would be soon won" (possibly referring to his attempt to become the Democratic Presidential candidate in 1852). Sends his regards to mutual acquaintances Sickles & Field (possibly other Democrats from New York).
