Description
Letter to Cammie Williams from C. V. Hill in Punta Gorda, British Honduras (present-day Belize). Hill mentions a "tariff bill" that probably refers to the Wilson-Gorman Tariff Act of August, 1894. "Breckenridge" probably refers to Clifton Rodes Breckinridge, an Arkansas Congressman from 1883-1894, briefly unseated due to a scandal involving voter fraud and assassination of another candidate.
