Union officer (1827–1901) who served as the Colonel of the 5th Regiment California Volunteer Infantry. ALS signed “G. W. Bowie,” one page both sides, 8 x 9.75, January 18, 1846. Letter to J. F. Webb. In part: “You will oblige me very much by giving your attention if convenient to the enclosed Power of Attorney. It is similar to one previously sent you by me…Satisfy yourself for your attention to it & remit me the balance as early as practicable.” Under his signature, Bowie writes an official appointment of Webb, signing at the conclusion, “G. W. Bowie.” another endorsement extends on to the second integral page, and is also addressed on the reverse to Webb. In very good condition, with partial separations along horizontal folds, scattered toning, and some light paper loss to second page.
