Governor Alvan T. Fuller Letters
Description:
This letter from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to Governor Alvan T. Fuller expresses the dissatisfaction of Fuller's decision in regard to the Sacco-Vanzetti Case. As the letter progresses, the ACLU makes five main points and requests that Fuller take them into consideration to prevent the execution of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. This letter and others found in the collection offer scholars an insight into the efforts taken by prominent figures, organizations and everyday citizens for justice for Sacco and Vanzetti.
