American statesman (1823–1885) who served as speaker of the house and as vice president under Grant. His political career was ultimately ruined by his involvement in the Credit Mobilier Affair and other scandals. AQS, in pencil, signed “Schuyler Colfax” on a 7.5 x 4.5 album page. Colfax quotes Abraham Lincoln’s famous Cooper Institute speech delivered in 1860, in full, “Let us have faith that Right makes Might; and, in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty.” Signed at the bottom, “Schuyler Colfax, On the Cars, Nov. 6, 1878.” In fine condition, with toning and damp staining to edges, as well as scattered light toning.
