Scope and Contents From the Collection: This collection consists of five letters written by John Bragg of Mobile, Mobile County, Alabama to the editor of the “Daily Globe” from November 1853 to December 1857 requesting subscriptions to the “globe” during the sessions of Congress. In a couple of the letters he mentions that there are several subscribers in the Mobile area and suggests that the papers for these subscribers be packaged together to prevent the individual papers from going astray in the mail.
