<B>Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson and Jubal A. Early Autograph Endorsements Signed on Verso of an Autograph Letter Signed by Harry T. Hays</B></I> AES “<I>T Jackson</B></I>” , Dec. 26, 1862 reading, in part: “<I>Respectfully forwarded & acknowledged</B></I>” on verso of an ALS dated Nov. 19, 1862, by Hays requesting detached officers and soldiers be returned to duty to the 1st Louisiana Brigade commanded by Hays. In addition to Jackson, the verso bears two AESs by Jubal E. Early, the first dated Dec. 25, 1862 and reading: “<I>This paper is respectfully forwarded with the request that such officers and men as are not on extra duty in the division may be returned to the brigade.</B></I>” The second endorsement, dated “<I>HdQrs Ewells Division January 12, 1863</B></I>” reads: “<I>Men on duty in the division can't be returned unless we under proposition </B></I> unintelligible <I> from this brigade.</B></I>” Integral sheets, each measuring 7.75” x 9.75”, have been detached and framed side by side in a gild frame measuring 27.5” x 17.5”. Unfortunately Jackson's holograph and signature have all but faded, and Early's endorsements fare only slightly better and rate a “4”. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Framed - with Glass, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
