Letter, Theodore Hyatt to My good friend [W. F. M.] Arny
Author: Hyatt, Theodore
Date: March 21, 1860
Theodore Hyatt of New York wrote this letter to W. F. M. Arny, an agent of the National Kansas Committee and friend of his brother, Thaddeus Hyatt. The main focus of the letter revolved around his brother Thaddeus, who was currently involved in a struggle with the government over whether or not he would testify in court regarding his support of John Brown. Theodore wrote, "I much fear my good brother has an exaggerated conception of the importance of his position." Apparently, he felt that his brother was attempting to make himself a martyr. The letter also included a brief mention of problems with freightage to Atchison and the competition between Atchison and Leavenworth.

Letter, Theodore [Hyatt] to Dear Brother [Thaddeus Hyatt]
Author: Hyatt, Theodore
Date: September 4, 1860
This letter was written by Theodore Hyatt of New York to his brother Thaddeus Hyatt, president of the National Kansas Committee. Theodore rather vehemently berated his brother for his business dealings in Kansas--Theodore had negative experiences with investors and was not willing to lay himself on the line again. He also wrote that he "will not invest another dime in that miserable, God-forsaken country" called Kansas Territory. The rest of the letter discusses bank accounts and financial matters, in addition to a brief mention of a horse that Theodore purchased from S.C. Pomeroy.

Theodore Hyatt, a well known merchant of this city, died on Wednesday last by his own hand. Mr. Hyatt's mind had seemed depressed of late, and he had been under the care of Dr. Edward Seguin, although he visited daily his place of business at No 25 Waverly place. Wednesday he went to the office at 9:30 a.m. Nothing singular was noticed in his behavior. About noon heavy breathing was heard from a room on the second floor. The door was locked; but the room was entered through a window, and Mr. Hyatt was found sitting in a chair, a wound in his right temple, and a revolved grasped tightly in his hand. He was unconscious and died soon after. Dr. Seguin yesterday stated that extreme nervousness was the cause of Mr. Hyatt's trouble. His mental faculties had been over-taxed by his efforts at invention, and he became much depressed by the discovery that he could no longer concentrate his energies. A recent decline in business also had increased his nervousness.
Mr. Hyatt for twenty-five years had been engaged in different commercial pursuits in this city. He was a brother of Thaddeus Hyatt, a well-known anti-slavery man of this city, and was connected with him in the manufacture of the patent vault-lights which are in such general use in New York. He had been estemed wealthy but had met with many disastrous reverses, which had much reduced his estate. At the time of his death, he was Secretary and Treasurer of the Electric Light Company. Mr. Hyatt was born in 1814. He and Thaddeus Hyatt, who was intimately acquainted with
John Brown and other heroes of the anti-slavery days, played a somewhat conspicuous part in politics before the war, and was personal friends of Horace Greeley, John Cleveland and other prominent Republicans of the time. In his political beliefs Theodore Hyatt was inclined to be independent.
