Early ALS, one page, lightly-lined, 8 x 10, November 16, 1859. Letter to Blatchford, Seward, and Griswald. In part: “Your allusion to a ‘summons’ was all Greek to me, never having heard of or seen a thing of the kind before. I have however drawn something which I suppose will answer the purpose…With us, after notice of an application ‘for the relief demanded in the complaint’ the defts attys have no further notice of proceedings, unless, it be of an application for surplus moneys. I mention this to account for my ignorance of the use or existence under our code of a ‘Master summons.’” In very good condition, with partial separations along intersecting folds, a fold through a single letter of signature, and scattered light toning and soiling. Much earlier correspondence from Cleveland than usually seen.
