LS signed “R. B. Taney,” one page, 7.5 x 9.75, February 17, 1834. As secretary of the treasury, Taney writes Congress Tristram Burgess. In part: “It is a source of regret to me that your communication of the 13th of December last on the subject of…the establishment of a Marine Hospital at Providence, would, so long, have remained unanswered…I learn that the disbursement for the relief of sick and disabled seamen…had so far exceeded the receipts as to produce a difference of $15,750.” In very good condition, with several small tears and chips with scattered repairs, somewhat irregular toning, and scattered toning (heavier along the right side).
