Revolutionary War general and founder of the military school that became West Point (1750–1806). LS signed “H. Knox, Secy of War,” one page, 7.5 x 11.75, July 10, 1792. Letter to Dr. John Vacher. In part: “Claims in the late hospital department are adjusted at the Treasury, and not in this department—your claim therefore has been submitted to the auditor but it is his opinion that there is no existing law or resolve of Congress which would justify an extra allowance to you as a Surgeon of the hospital department during the late War.” Matted and framed to an overall size of 13 x 17. Significant separations to central horizontal mailing fold, otherwise fine condition.
