Confederate general and congressman during the American Civil War. ALS, one page, 7.75 x 9.75, February 27, 1856. Marshall writes, in full: “Your of this date came tonight—I owe you an apology for not acknowledging your letters before but I have been constantly sick for three weeks past and neglectful of everything. I cheerfully & gratefully acknowledge your prompt remittance to me of your check for $1500 as per my request and will return it to you in a very few days from this time, if I have to go into bank to obtain it for I have not heard from home yet,” adding the post script, “I congratulate you that we have Mr. Fillmore as our candidate for the Presidency—I believe by energetic effort and timely exertion he can be elected.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one of which lightly passes through the florid signature, uniform toning, a light area of soiling, a few trivial tears, and some trivial brushing to some of the text.
