Description
This image was engraved from a daguerreotype of Thomas W. Dorr and was executed by Archibald L. Dick of New York City. This engraving first appeared in John O'Sullivan's United States Magazine and Democratic Review for August 1842 and was accompanied with a five page sketch of the life of Thomas Dorr. The image proved popular as it was also used to illustrate Edmund Burke's House of Representatives Report No. 546 investigating the interference of the executive in the affairs of Rhode Island and Might and Right by Frances Harriet Whipple Green both published in 1844 as well as Dan King's Life and Times of Thomas Wilson Dorr published in 1859.
