- Hamilton Rowan Gamble Papers | Letter signed James S. Rollins, Washington City, to Honorable H.R. Gamble. I have met with many Missourians here, and have received numerous letters from our friends at home, expressing the most earnest desire that you should be present to attend the deliberations of the state convention which is to assemble on Monday next. It is a most important crisis in the history of our state. A blunder committed by the convention may be fatal to the best interests of Missouri for many years to come. I sincerely hope that Missouri will not be without your counsel and advice in this hour of peril and alarm. (2 pages), 1861 July 17
