1852. 2 pp. pen-and-ink on folded sheet. 1 vols. 12mo. Fine. 2 pp. pen-and-ink on folded sheet. 1 vols. 12mo. Secretary of State Trying to Help the Disgraced Oakes Shaw. Secretary of State Edward Everett writes to Secretary of the Navy John Pendleton Kennedy on Justice Lemuel Shaw's behalf to recommend his son John Oakes Shaw for a position in the Navy. Oakes Shaw as he was known was the eldest son from his father's second marriage to Hope Savage. He became the brother-in-law of Herman Meville when the author married Justice Shaw's daughter Elizabeth from his first marriage. In fact Oakes had truly disgraced his family when in 1844 he married an "inopportunely preganant Caroline Caro Sarah Cobb." Reading in full "Mr. John O. Shaw of Boston a son of Chief Justice Lemuel Shaw of Massachusetts is desirous of being appointed a pursor in the Navy. His father equally respectable as a Magistrate & a citizen desires me to speak a good word for him. I have no knowledge of the young man but I am sure the Chief Justice would not recommend him if he did not think him fully qualified for the place". Parker Herman Melville Volume 1: 1819-1851 pp. 341-343 unknown
