Wife of Jefferson Davis and First Lady of the Confederacy. ALS signed “V. Jefferson Davis,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 4 x 6.25, July 11, 1897. Letter to Mrs. Fowler following the loss of her father. In part: “I have just learned the painful news which has plunged your house in mourning and brought grief to thousands who revered, trusted, and admired your dear father as I did. I fear there are few great men left like him for his statesmanship was the outcome of a purer state of public morals than that of this day…I looked forward with much pleasure to meeting him and you here this summer not knowing that the dear Judge had been ill.” In fine condition, with bisecting horizontal fold, and a mild shade of toning. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
