Union general and onetime commander of the Army of the Potomac (1824–1881); the distinctive whiskers he sported gave rise to the word ‘sideburns.’ Partly-printed DS, signed “A. E. Burnside,” one page both sides, 13 x 8.5, March 11, 1869. As Rhode Island governor, Burnside appoints a local official. In part, “You, the said Edwin L. Hunt, being chosen by the General Assembly of the State aforesaid, to the place and office of a Justice of the Peace, in the City of Providence…that justice may be duly administered.” In very good condition, with several vertical folds one passing through his signature, a tear along a fold beneath his name, light creasing, scattered soiling, and show-through from printing on the reverse. Interesting piece of Rhode Island history.
