Description
Dating from 1845, this broadside depicts Charles Jackson, Samuel Man, James Simmons and Lemuel Arnold. In that year, moderates within the Law & Order Party felt that it was time for Thomas Dorr to be released from prison. The four subjects of this broadside were of this belief. Instead of supporting the Law & Order candidate James Fenner for governor they supported Charles Jackson. Jackson was elected and shortly thereafter Dorr was released from prison.
