Interesting war-dated ALS signed “A. Doubleday,” one page, lightly-lined both sides, 4.75 x 7.75, March 2, 1862. Doubleday writes to Colonel Wm. Ch. Christian, Commanding, at Fort Lyon, Virginia. In part: “I have been shelved for the present by being placed in command of the Forts on this side of the River. My friends are very indignant and as Sec. Stanton did not issue the order they think they can have it changed. You may rest assured I shall use every exertion to go into the Field and as Senators Wade and Chandler & others are disposed to use their influence in my behalf I am not without hopes they may be successful. If so, you may rely upon my obtaining your Regiment if possible. If you chance to visit the City, call at my office. It is still located in the same place.” Accompanied by the original transmittal envelope and the original manuscript order Doubleday alludes to, dated February 24, 1862, mentioning him by name and signed on behalf of Major General McClellan by “S. Williams.” Intersecting folds to letter, one through a single letter of signature, otherwise fine, bright condition. Order has several partial separations along horizontal folds.
