Manuscript DS, signed “A. Burr,” seven pages on four sheets, 7.75 x 12.5, September 22, 1824. A lengthy legal document concerning the case of Rachel Eden [Oratrix], v. Stephen Waring. Addressing the "Honorable the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York Humbly complaining sheweth unto your Honor your Oratrix Racel Eden of the City of New York…that [her husband] Medcef Eden the younger …deceased being Entitled in fee simple under the will of his father Medcef Eden the Elder to certain real Estate situate in the City of New York & Elsewhere: And doubts having arisen as to the construction of the said will as to the right of the said Medcef Eden the Younger to the said real property thereunder." The lands in question included "numbers 38 & 40 situate on Gold Street." According to the document, tenant and pretend owner Gideon Kimberly, sold the property to a Stephen Waring for $7,000, and Burr, acting in behalf of the Oratrix Rachael Eden, asks the court for a Writ of Subpoena, "Please your Honor to grant unto your Oratrix the Peoples most gracious writ of Subpoena to be directed to the said Stephen Waring and the rest of the confederates when discovered thereby commanding them at a certain day &…there to answer the premises and to Stand to & abide such order decree." The document, completed in a secretarial hand includes several minor corrections in Burr's hand. Tape reinforcement to weak and partially separated horizontal folds, mild overall toning, a few chips to edges, last page shorter than first three, and pinholes to top edge, otherwise very good condition.
