American statesman (1786–1857), U S Senator, 11th Governor of New York, U S Secretary of War under James K. Polk, and U S Secretary of State under Franklin Pierce. ALS signed “W. L. Marcy,” one page, 8 x 10, embossed Congress Southworth Co. letterhead, May 30, 1842. In a letter to H. M. Western, Esq., Marcy writes concerning the delivering of papers, in part: “When I come to NY again I will endeavor to recollect to bring down all I have in order to deliver them to the respective parties from whom they were received. If you will specify any papers which you think were delivered to me & not returned I will see if they are among those I still have.” The reverse bears an address panel, handwritten by Marcy. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one of which passes through the first letter of the signature, scattered light creasing and toning, with a light, uniform block of toning over the text, a small tear along the right edge, and a tear and paper loss to the second blank integral page.
