Senator Daniel Webster to Franklin Haven, about March 31, 1850

MY DEAR SIR,—Above you find the note which you suggested. I have just come from the Capitol, where Mr. Calhoun's death has been announced with more than usual circumstance. He leaves but three of us who were his associates in 1813, Mr. Clay, Mr. King, and Daniel Webster.

Three o'clock.—I have only time to get this off.

Yours,
DANIEL WEBSTER.
