by JACKSON, Andrew (1767-1845; American military hero of the War of 1812, 7th President of the United States, 1829-1837)
May 9th 1833 – A. J.” To the side in ink, in another hand: “Answd 11th May.” Above in a third hand, in pencil: “file this with letter of Mrs. / Jane C.

Old fold lines, as for mailing, but very good. (Inventory #: 66704)
