Handwritten endorsement, signed “Taylor and Lincoln,” with six additional words in Lincoln’s hand, “And the plaintiff doth the like, Taylor & Lincoln p. q.,” at the conclusion of a manuscript legal brief written in another hand on two light blue 8 x 12.5 lightly-lined sheets. The brief regards the case of Betsey Ferguson vs. Peter Fleming filed in Circuit Courts of Tazewell County in May 1854, and states that Betsey Ferguson had entered into a contract to wed Peter Fleming once he notified her that she should come to the United States. After a year of repeatedly notifying Ms. Ferguson to hold up her end of the contract, Mr. Fleming was asking for release from all promises made to Ms. Ferguson. In fine condition, with faint toning along expected folds. Accompanied by a full transcription of the brief from The Lincoln Library in Pennsylvania.
