ALS as vice president, signed “M. Van Buren,” two pages both sides, 8 x 10, November 7, 1833. Letter, marked “Private” to an unidentified gentleman, in Van Buren’s difficult to decipher hand. In part: “I regret from the bottom of my heart the incident to which you refer. It comes upon me by surprise and excites me in the same feeling that it has in you. I have not had an opportunity to ascertain but can almost ascertain in the quarter to which you allude is principally, if not wholly, founded in mistake. I shall however know if the appointment is actually made…wrong. I do not now see how it can be remedied—a change would under the circumstances…would cost more than the thing is worth. If it be to you & me…make a strong appeal to the Doctor’s sense of what is due to his standing…and prevent him from falling into the…error of disappointed man…I have much regard for him & his family, & nothing would satisfy me more than to hear of his making a noise upon the subject. He is too valuable a man to sink to that. The injustice he has rec’d followed up by a forbearing & dignified course on his part would do him a great deal more good than the place especially in his…circumstances. I am wholly mistaken in the material of which the Dr.…is.” Intersecting folds, a few small repairs to separations along folds, scattered toning to edges, detached lower left corner of second page, and mounting remnant to left edge of first page, otherwise very good condition.
