ALS signed “W. T. Sherman,” four pages on two adjoining 5 x 8 lightly lined sheets, 912 Garrison Ave., St. Louis letterhead, November 21, 1884. Sherman writes to William R. Balch in Philadelphia. In part: “I recall with so much pleasure the delightful evening I spent with your club at its banquet last year that it may seem ungracious that I do not at once comply with your request to supply some article descriptive of an event in my own sphere…. As a matter of fact my experience has been of the most varied kind, one day with the magnates of the land, and the next with miners, soldiers, or cuttermen. Last night only I was up till 2 o’clock of the morning presiding at a banquet of cuttermen assembled here from Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, etc, etc …. You might have mistaken them for an assembly of lawyers and city businessmen—many of the speeches were really eloquent… I am at this moment expecting apt. Redford Rim[?] of the Royal Navy of England here on a visit, to show him some of our own attractions such as…the Zoological Garden, Forest Oak Park.” In very good condition, with scattered soiling and staining, light handling wear, and short edge separations at folds. Accompanied by a secretarial letter accepting a wedding invitation on Sherman’s behalf which he is unfortunately unable to attend. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
