American soldier and statesman (1758–1843) who was a delegate to the Continental Congress, US Senator from New York, and Secretary of War. ALS signed “John Armstrong,” one page, 7.75 x 10, December 8, 1811. In part: “When I wrote to Mr. Ingraham, my Washington friend had not reported, nor has he yet, which can only arise from the circumstance of his not having achieved his objective. When he does, you shalt hear from me. Keep up your spirits—they are among our best resources in adversity.” In very good condition, with mild uniform toning, intersecting folds affecting the signature, scattered areas of soiling, small collector notation, and a tear on the adjacent leaf after separating from the wax seal.
