Confederate general (1832–1919), who suffered at least eleven combat wounds and was a three-term member of the House of Representatives and Secretary of the United States Senate from 1893–1900. Unique and interesting war-date ALS signed “Wm. R. Cox,” one page, lightly-lined, 5.5 x 9, no date [but written between 1862–June 2, 1864]. After receiving word from Major R. S. Tucker that his property statements have been received, Cox writes below Tucker’s letter, in full: “I have 69 acres situated on the left of The R. R. which I purchased from…for about $10 or $11 per acre as woodlands but mostly all the wood has been removed. The land is doubtless known to Mr. Briggs.” In very good condition, with creasing, toning, a few tears affecting the text of the letter, and a bit of mirroring from where the letter was folded.
