ALS, one page both sides, 5.5 x 8, December 7, 1856. Fillmore responds to a request for biographical information. “I was born in Locke (now Summerhill) Cayuga Co. N. Y. January 7, 1800, commenced the study of law with Walter Wood at Montville, Cayuga in 1819, and continued it with Asa Rice, Buffalo, in 1822,3 when I was admitted to the Erie County Common Pleas, and removed to Aurora, Erie Co. where I resided till 1830 when I removed again to Buffalo where I have resided ever since. I was admitted as attorney in the Supreme Court…in August 1827. I was counselor at Albany in 1829.” Letter has been professionally inlaid to a slightly larger off-white sheet. In fine condition, with a mailing fold through tops of a few letters of signature, mild toning and slight show-through from text on reverse. Interestingly, Fillmore, who had recently retired from the presidency, makes no mention of holding the nation’s highest office.
