American statesman (1764–1836) who helped draft the Louisiana Civil Code and served as Andrew Jackson’s Secretary of State. LS signed “Edw. Livingston,” one page, 8 x 10, April 20, 1830. Letter to a gentleman. In part: “The copy of my speech which I sent you was struck off before the proof was edited. Pray destroy it and accept of the more accurate copy which I now send. It will I fear find favor with no party. I do not certainly know the progress of out negotiations in France but believe at the last advises nothing definite had been done, nor can I presume to advise the creditors what…to pursue that must be left to their discretion guided by the excellent advice they have at command.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, scattered toning and soiling, a repaired tear to the bottom, chips and dings to the edges, and a couple light pencil notations.
