<B>Mirabeau B. Lamar Manuscript Letter Signed</B></I> "<I>Mirabeau B. Lamar</B></I>" as President of Texas, one page, 8" x 10". Austin, October 2, 1841. James H. Raymond of the General Land Office has requested Pres. Lamar to "<I>appoint a committee to investigate the accounts and the work performed by him in the Genl Land Office.</B></I>" This letter, to James Izod and Benjamin F. Johnson, requests that they "<I>act in that capacity and report to me whether in your opinion he has overdrawn any thing in receiving his pay for such service as he has rendered the Republic...</B></I>" In April 1841, Pres. Lamar had appointed James H. Raymond acting Treasurer of the Republic of Texas. A month after this letter was written, he was appointed Chief Clerk of the Texas House of Representatives, a position he held until annexation in 1845. Evidently, Izod and Johnson reported favorably.
