Caption

Daniel Webster, 19th century American statesman (c1880). Webster (1782-1852) was a United States senator and Secretary of State. In 1842 he was instrumental in the drafting of the Webster-Ashburton Treaty, which resolved the tensions that had built up between the United States and Britain over the Caroline Affair, an incident during the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. The treaty definitively established the eastern part of the frontier between Canada and the US. A print from Cassell's History of the United States, by Edmund Ollier, Volume III, Cassell Petter and Galpin, London, c1880.
