LetterLetter from John W.'s nephew John C. Houghton to Seth Bryant (a shoe and leather industry historian):
Lynn, MA 29 Jul 1890

Mr. Seth Bryant

Dear Sir: I send you today a copy of the article which you saw when you were in Lynn a while since. I find that Mr. J. W. Houghton was born in Harvard, Mass., Aug. 11, 1787; he died in Augusta, Georgia, Feb. 27, 1851. The amount given to New England relatives was about $23,000. The article in the will respecting his slaves is as follows:
Item 13 -- "It is my will and desire, and I so direct, that all the negro slaves, male and female, of which I may die seized and possessed , with their future issue and increase, be removed by my executor to the colony of Liberia, in Africa, under the regulations, and with the assistance of the American Colonization Society, within two years after my decease, provided their free and voluntary consent is first obtained; and to carry out this item of my will fully into effect, I give to my executor $4000, to be expended by him in defraying their expenses to the sea-board, and in furnishing them with such an outfit as I have expressed to him orally."
The paper, of which a copy is sent with this, gives further information, and in connection with what you already know from a personal acquaintance with Mr. Houghton, will form a basis for a biographical sketch, should you feel disposed to write one. Mr. Houghton made his visit to New England in 1845. Very truly yours.
