Elliot Christopher Cowdin
The letters in this letterpress copy book include several written to President Abraham Lincoln pledging Cowdin's support for the Union cause. Cowdin referred on May 31, 1861, to a meeting of Americans in Paris who would stand with the president and the Union to the end. Cowden was a staunch supporter of John C. Fremont and congratulated him on June 13, 1861, for becoming major general and suggested that French officers and sub-officers could join the Union Army. Cowdin also sent letters to various cabinet members and Senator Charles Sumner in support of his nephew Robert Jackson Cowdin's request for a lieutenant's commission and in support of a higher commission for Cowdin's brother, General Robert Cowdin. He wrote to the latter on October 28, 1861, bemoaning the "unjust" treatment of John C. Fremont. Cowden wrote to Secretary of State William Seward concerning the Mason and Slidell controversy and his belief that Frenchmen were willing to help the union via the French press spreading anti-British views in Europe.
