Virginia-born Revolutionary War officer (1752–1818) whose success in capturing crucial lands in the Northwest Territory greatly weakened British control and influence and earned him the sobriquet ‘Conqueror of the Old Northwest.’ Manuscript DS, signed “G R Clark,” one page, 6.5 x 3, December 7, 1786. Pay order reads at the top, with original spelling retained, “Buckner Pittman Dr to James Egnew 14 Days work at one Dollor a Day. 4:4:0.” Under the pay order Pittman writes to Clark: “Sir Pleas to pay the above account and you will much obblige your fiend [sic, friend] to serve Buckner Pittman.” Signed at the bottom by Clark. Central vertical fold, scattered toning and soiling, some creases and wrinkles, and slight spreading to ink, otherwise very good condition.
