Edward Everett Hale (1822-1909) was an American author and Unitarian minister. Hale was involved in many social reform movements, including abolition and popular education. He was also well known for his 1863 short story, "The Man Without a Country," which promoted patriotic support of the Union.
The Edward Everett Hale Letters consist of two short notes by Hale. The first is handwritten and dated 15 Mar 1884, sent to an unknown correspondent. The second is typewritten and dated 5 Oct 1897, and responds to a request that Hale come speak in Cleveland, Ohio. Both are written on "39 Highland St., Roxbury, Mass." letterhead.
