Partly-printed DS, signed “A. Horton,” “N. Hunt,” and with an “X” by John Robertson, one page, 7.75 x 5, February 15, 1838. An oath prescribed by the Republic of Texas Constitution in which Robertson swears “that I was a resident citizen of Texas, at the date of the Declaration of Independence, that I did not leave the Country during the campaign of the Spring of 1836 to avoid a participation in the struggle, that I did not refuse to participate in the War, that I did not aid or assist the enemy, that I have not previously received a title for my quantum of land, and that I conceive myself to be justly entitled, under the Constitution and laws, to the quantity of land, for which I now apply—One League & One Labor.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, trimmed top edge, repaired missing upper right corner, scattered toning, foxing, and soiling, and several small edge chips.
