<B>John Sullivan War Date Autograph Document Signed </B></I>"<I>Jno Sullivan</B></I>"<I>.</B></I> Two pages, 7.5" x 12.25", Durham, New Hampshire, April 20, 1780. Sullivan (1740-95), both a member of the Continental Congress and a major general, signed this document as an attorney for a plaintiff in a suit for debt. This piece is a testament to the rampant inflation in the sixth year of the Revolutionary War. Sullivan obtained a favorable judgment of £5630 for his client, a fantastic amount of money if it were not to be paid "<I>in paper Currency</B></I>" -- the very source of the inflation! Sullivan collected a fee of £20 for his services. Weak at folds, with pinholes at intersections, light toning, else very good. <I>Ex. Henry E. Luhrs Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
