Property developer and merchant (1715–1787) who emigrated to Boston from England. During the Revolution, Rowe avoided choosing sides in favor of tending to his business affairs. He was also the owner of the Eleanor, one of the tea ships involved in the Boston Tea Party, an event in which he is rumored to have been involved. ALS signed “J. Rowe,” one page, 7.25 x 9.25, dated June 2, 1775, Boston. Rowe writes to his brother, in part: “The bearer Capt. Dunn is a worthy, honest man, If you can do him any kind offers by recommending him…I have many things to say but the times will not permit me. We are at present in the most distressed state…don’t write me by the port but by any other opportunities for transport to Boston.” In very good condition, with light intersecting folds, one slightly passing through two letters of the signature, creasing along the left edge, light toning along the edges, a few trivial areas of spotting, a tear to the top edge, and two areas of separation along the left edge.
