Paterson's letters, often dated New Bromley, NJ, give insight into the thoughts and mores of the man who went on to become Attorney-general of New Jersey during the Revolution, a framer of the Federal Constitution, U.S. Senator from New Jersey, then Governor of the state, and, at the time of his death, an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. |
