Description

“I have received a further indication of the society’s kindness to me by its authorizing me to write the 19th volume of its collection”

ALS in French, signed “Lafayette,” one page, 7.75 x 7, August 1, 1819. Letter to a gentleman, in part (translated): “I have received a further indication of the society’s kindness to me by its authorizing me to write the 19th volume of its collection. Even though harvest time calls me back to La Grange…I didn’t want to delay in offering my thanks.” In very good condition, with intersecting mailing folds, a couple passing through signature, scattered toning, foxing, and wrinkling, and a trivial hole to top left. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
