American statesman (1760–1824) who was the youngest signer of the US Constitution and who later served as the fourth Speaker of the House of Representatives and as a member of the Senate. Arrested in 1807 in connection with the Aaron Burr conspiracy case, he was never tried, but the scandal effectively ended his political career. ALS signed “Jona: Dayton,” one page both sides, 8 x 9.75, April 7, 1812. Letter to David Gelston, Collector of the Port of New York. In part: “Mr. George Williamson, the son of my wife’s brother, has been arrested and taken to prison, as we are told, in virtue of a process issued under your directions as Collector. Whatever may be the merits of the cause, or the chances of a successful Judgement against him, it will be nominally merely as respects the recovery of property of any description, for he professes none. His conduct has been by no means such as to merit & meet the approbation of his very respectable & worthy parents, but it would be a great gratification to them nevertheless, at least to know the nature & extent of the demands against him.” Second integral page bears an address panel in Dayton’s hand. In fine condition, with intersecting folds and some scattered light toning.
