Partly-printed DS as president, one page, 17 x 15, March 2, 1863. President Lincoln appoints Thomas G. Turner “Assessor of Internal Revenue for the First Collection District of the State of Rhode Island.” Signed at the conclusion, “Abraham Lincoln,” and countersigned by Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase. Double matted and framed with an engraved portrait of Lincoln to an overall size of 32.5 x 22.5. Intersecting storage folds, one through a single letter of signature, mirroring of ink from folding, and show-through from docketing on reverse, otherwise fine condition. Thomas Goodwin Turner (1810–1875) served as the 26th Governor of Rhode Island from 1859-1860. A supporter of Lincoln, he was appointed by Lincoln to the position of First Collector after failing to be re-elected in Rhode Island. Oversized.
