Letters to Stevie E. Barton from George Ellsworth, 5th and 6th of June 1866
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Letters to Stevie E. Barton from George Ellsworth, [1866]. The envelope contains two letters. The first letter is dated at Buffalo, N.Y., June 5 and is four pages. He arrived Saturday night. He met a gentleman and his two daughters at Spencer House and this morning he left and they all travelled together. He accompanied them to the falls 23 miles below here. They took a carriage and went over the bridge to Canada. They had a glorious time. He left the Falls for Buffalo and they went to N.Y. Since he has been there he has met the special correspondents of the New York, Chicago, Boston and Cincinnati papers. They fear the Fenian War will not last long enough to give them a good spree. He met a company of British troops in Canada yesterday from his old stomping ground, Whitby, C.W. They are eager for the fray. The Fenians swear the war has not begun yet. There is no doubt but thousands of Fenians are moving to the Canada frontier and “this scrape don’t draw the U.S. and England into a war”. The Canadians are bitter on the U.S. authorities. The second letter is dated at Rochester, N.Y., June 6. Ellsworth writes that as he predicted, he leaves Buffalo today for the supposed seat of war in Ogdensburg & the Vermont border. A company of Volunteers left on a pleasure excursion for Albany this evening. He will try to go to N.O. to see your good people. There is great excitement in the country[?]. Everybody is sympathetic with the Fenians but from Gen. Meade’s present policy it will block[?] them from getting into Canada[?]. The envelope is addressed to Stevie E. Barton, Western Union Telegraph Office, Cincinnati, Ohio, postmarked Buffalo Jun 5.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
