{"value"=>"<p>The Gubernatorial Papers consist of files maintained and material collected by Tilden during his term of office. His successful effort to break up the Canal Ring is reflected through financial reports, legal files, and printed matter. Executive files cover a range of topics such as canals, railroads, demographics and statistics, remarks on assembly bills, and vetoes. Legislation drafted or enacted during Tilden's tenure is represented in the legislative files, which include drafts, often in multiple iterations, of bills relating to annexation and incorporation of towns and villages, appropriations, political reform, and public health.</p>"}
