Exceptional Civil War dated four-page ALS, signed “St. Clair Emerson,” 8 x 5, on colorfully patriotic Union stationery featuring a bust of General McClellan, written from Camp Barry, Washington, D.C, December 13, 1861 to “Miss Hellen Emerson” of Troopsville, Cayuga Co., New York. This important, patriotic letter reads, in part (with spelling and grammar retained): “On the day of our arrival Friday we were marched to the White House where we were introduced to Gov Seward and the President Abe Lincoln… We were reviewed by some Genreal I forgot his name and by Major Doubelday of Auburn whoe said we were the finest company he ever saw.” In very good condition, with uniform toning, and scattered toning and soiling. Accompanied by its original envelope, postmarked “Washington, D.C.,” with the original postage stamp lacking. Truly amazing firsthand comments from a soldier actually in attendance for Lincoln’s first State of the Union address.
