ALS, one page, lightly-lined, 7 x 8.5, black bordered stationery, January 5, 1854. In full: “I spent New Years at Aurora and returned day before yesterday, and found all well. Abbie received a letter from Minnie today, and I was gratified to hear that you had all arrived safely in Washington, and that Minnie had seen a New Year's jam at the Executive Mansion. She will not probably desire to repeat it. You know that I told you I had diverse errrands, but not to confuse, I shall give them separately. And this is No. 1 by which I wish you to obtain a copy of John A. Rockwell's Rept. (House of Reps) No. 145, 2 Spe. of the 30th Congs. on ‘Canals & Rail Roads between the Atlantic & Pacific oceans,’ Febry 26, 1849, if a stray one can be found, and mail it home. Make kindest regards to Mrs. Ham & the children.” In fine condition, with some scattered light toning and wrinkling. Written on mourning stationery months after losing his wife Abigail - "Abbie" was his daughter, Mary Abigail Fillmore, who dies suddenly only months after this letter was written.
