Beschreibung:

DAVIS, JEFFERSON Autograph letter signed, single page of a folded sheet of stationery with a blind-stamped coat of arms, the integral leaf with address, written to the Honorable Isaac Toucey, the Secretary of the Navy, dated March 20, 1857, Washington D.C. 8 x 6 1/8 inches (20.5 x 15.5 cm); 16 lines, signed at foot. Usual folds, overall in fine condition. A letter introducing a Mr. William Wall to Toucey "from personal acquaintance of many years to commend him to your personal consideration." Davis goes on to recommend Wall for the office of Naval Store Keeper at the Washington Navy Yard, though we do not find that his recommendation was followed. Davis was at that time at the beginning of his second term in the Senate, having commenced earlier in March. The letter is in a folder and envelope from the great autograph dealer Thomas F. Madigan, sold 1940. C
