ALS, one page both sides, 4.5 x 7, January 22, 1855. Sumner writes to John Bailey. In full: “The bill for the payment of the French claims has already passed the Senate. It is now before the House. Its friends will use every effort to press it. I am not without hope that it may pass. But you will pardon me if I express a doubt whether any substantial measure of justice can be expected from the Congress which has passed the Nebraska bill. Be sure that I shall not neglect any effort in my power to promote it.” Matted and framed (so that both sides are visible), with a period engraving and two typed informational sheets to an overall size of 14.25 x 14.25. Faint show-through of writing and blot to one word, otherwise fine condition.
