ALS signed “Z. Taylor, Majr,3d R Infy,” one page both sides, 7.5 x 9.5, Louisville, Kentucky, April 9, 1819. Letter to Col. George Gibson recommending a Lieutenant in his command. In part: “Sometime since I took the liberty to recommend Lt. J. B. Carre…to you through Genl. Jesup, for an appointment in the company department & was glad to find from a register forwarded me by the Adjt Inspr. Genl that he had received the appointment previous to my recommendation reaching you…Lt. Clark would be very much gratified if he could be attached to some southern station, as his constitution is not adapted to a northern climate.” Beautifully matted and framed with a gold-inlaid, sterling silver portrait plate issued in a limited edition by the Franklin Mint in the early-to-mid 1970s and a well-done copy of the front of the letter, to an overall size of 36.5 x 18.5. A few small fold separations, scattered toning and soiling, and several small notations, otherwise very good condition. Oversized.
