Manuscript DS, signed “Wm. H. Harrison, aide de camp,” one page, 8.5 x 3.25, July 17, 1795. A receipt for rations for four men and one woman for a duration of two days, signed at the conclusion by Harrison. In very good condition, with uniform shade of toning, a few trivial areas of soiling, trimmed edges, and some light show through from an ink notation on the reverse. Harrison, who was then serving as Anthony Wayne’s aide-de-camp, signed the Treaty of Greenville, ending the Northwest Indian War, on August 3. The provisions of the treaty, which involved ten Native American tribes, included the turning over of certain lands (large parts of Ohio and the site of present-day Chicago among them) to the United States and delineated an ‘official’—but often ignored—boundary between American and Indian holdings.
