This was very useful to my research. I am glad someone compiled the letters.

Interesting - but very perplexing. Once one gets past the "adolescent facebook spat" nature of much of the stylised prose, the letters seem to argue far more in Barron's favour than Decatur's, yet it was allegedly the latter's friends who published them.
