Partly-printed DS as president, signed “Th: Jefferson,” one page, 13.75 x 16.5, May 24, 1804. President Jefferson appoints John Butler “a Surgeon’s Mate in the Navy in the Service of the United States.” The line containing “have nominated and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate,” has been crossed out as the Senate was in recess. Signed at the conclusion by Jefferson and countersigned by Secretary of the Navy R. Smith. In good condition, with Smith’s signature light but legible, all handwritten portions of the text very faded and just partly legible, intersecting folds, one passing through a portion of Jefferson’s signature, and scattered creases, wrinkles, and toning. The white paper seal is worn and creased, but mostly intact. Jefferson’s signature remains crisp and legible.
