I have not been able to get into it even to get my court papers, & shall have to go away tomorrow without them leaving orders to have them sent to me at Carrollton. I am therefore unable to get at your papers. I must therefore be back here as soon as I can & will take them all to Steubenville. Clarke who I expected to be in the office is not here." Address panel on the reverse in also in Stanton’s hand. Intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, several partial fold separations, a couple areas of paper loss, one from wax seal, uniform toning from previous display, and some scattered light soiling, otherwise very good condition.
