In 1838 the Whig Young Men of New York City presented to Robert Charles
Wetmore a pair of large, ornate, silver pitchers[8] inscribed:
To Robert Charles Wetmore their late Chairman from the General
Committee of Whig Young Men of the City of New York a Memorial of
political fellowship, a token of personal esteem and a tribute of
patriotic service 1838.
The bases of the pitchers are engraved:
Presented to Chas Fredk Wetmore by his father, January 1st, 1840.
These pitchers were made by Geradus Boyce, a New York silversmith who
worked in the first half of the 19th century.
