Politician (1808–1873) who served as secretary of the treasury for the first three years of Abraham Lincoln's term, after which Lincoln appointed him chief justice of the Supreme Court. In that role Chase presided over the 1868 impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson. LS signed “S. P. Chase,” one page, lightly-lined, 6.25 x 8, September 20, 1854. Letter to an unidentified friend. In part: “I do not know Mott, but as you all are satisfied I of course am, though I should have preferred yourself…or…one known to me. It is a pity that you and our other friends did not make appointments to meet me.” Double matted and framed with a small portrait of Chase to an overall size of 12.5 x 19.5. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, a couple spots, and some mild toning.
