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.” Scarce war-dated partial manuscript DS, signed “G. R. Clark,” one page, 6 x 6, January 26, 1780. Partial document regarding the settlement of a tract of land in Kentucky. In part: “John Porter…with James Hunter went up Beargrass Creek where the said John Hunter improved a Tract of land by building a cabbin [sic]…That on the head of the Beargrass they parted company, & that he understood after said parting that the said Hunter made other improvements on the Water of Salt River.” Boldly signed at the conclusion by Clark. In very good condition, with a couple small separations along intersecting folds, scattered toning, light show-through from docketing on reverse, and a few edge chips. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
