"the extension of Slavery into Territory now free should be resisted because it is wrong in principle, contrary to the spirit of our republican institution and the best interests of our blessed Country” James C. Curtis. New York state senator and free soil party member. Curtis writes just after his nomination for state senator by the newly formed Free Soil Party convention. ALS. 1 page. Cochecton, 30 Aug., 1848. “Your letter informing me that a convention of the free soil democracy of the 9th Congressional district had nominated me as the candidate for Congress of the free soil democracy of the district was duly received. For this mark of respect and confidence on the part of the convention I am truly grateful. Fully believing that the extension of Slavery into Territory now free should be resisted because it is wrong in principle, contrary to the spirit of our republican institution and the best interests of our blessed Country. As the platform and resolutions adopted at the Buffalo convention are correct in principal and of course are correct in practice. I fully subscribe to them and to the principle of no more Slave Territory and cheerfully accept the nomination so unanimously tendered me through you only regretting that some are more efficious capable and able to carry out the principal for which we are contending. Free soil & free territory have been selected by the convention. I am with great respect, Yours…James C. Curtis. The Free Soil party had just held its first convention on August 9 and 10th. Organized on a platform which opposed the admission of any new slave states into the Union. In 1854, the party was absorbed into the new Republican party.
