Third-person ANS signed “H. Clay,” one page, 7.75 x 5, January 9, 1836. Clay writes to Col. R. M. Johnson, who would become Van Buren’s vice president in the following year. In full: “H. Clay’s respects to Col. Johnson and requests that he will give him the name of the President of the Bacon College of Geo. Town.” Johnson’s responds at the bottom, writing that he cannot remember his name and signing, “Rh. M. Johnson.” Clay also addressed the letter on the reverse of the second integral page, “The Hon’ble R. M. Johnson.” In very good condition, with two vertical folds with light separation, small dings and tears to the edges, mounting remnants to the left border, a few pencil notations to the upper left, and paper loss and pencil notations to the second integral page.
