Manuscript DS, signed by Austin at the age of 17, one page, 8 x 3.5, January 23, 1811. A promissory note signed by Daniel Phelps, in part: “I promise John Butler to pay him or order seventy five dollars and eighty nine cents on demand with interest. Mine A Burton.” Signed at the conclusion by Phelps, and signed in the lower left corner as a witness, “Stephen F. Austin,” and also witnessed by Timothy Phelps. Intersecting folds, light toning along a vertical fold slightly affecting signature, vertical ink cancellation to body, and a few wrinkles, otherwise fine condition. Austin was engaged in learning the family mercantile business in Missouri at this time, and subsequently took over the management of most of the lead business. A very clean and particularly early example. The Robert Davis Collection.
