abstract

{"value"=>"Theophilus Carey Callicot (1826-1920) was an American lawyer, newspaper editor and politician. The papers relate mainly to Callicot's stint as Customs Collector in Brooklyn, 1865-1868, and his subsequent arrest for traffic in illegal liquor. Material includes canceled checks drawn on the Nassau National Bank (Brooklyn) to various parties signed by Callicot; an IRS \"Collector's Certificate to Tobbaconist\" issued by Callicot in 1867, marked as having been surrendered in 1868; a report of cigars assessed; and an 1869 letter to Gordon Lester Ford congratulating him on his appointment Collector of Internal Revenue for the third collection district, and thanking him for a visit during his \"injust imprisonment.\" also included are several letters written by Callicot as editor of the Albany Times, including one to Paul Leicester Ford"}
