LS signed “C. A. Arthur,” one page, 5.5 x 8.5, State of New York Republican State Committee letterhead, September 2, 1880. Letter to A. Daggett declining an invitation for a senator. In part: “I regret to say that I do not think it possible for Senator Conkling to speak in Brooklyn or elsewhere before September 13th—the last date named in your letter. We hope to have him open the campaign here—but hardly before the 15th of September, because his professional engagements prevent.” Letter is affixed to a larger mount and framed to an overall size of 9.5 x 13. A bit of light feathering to signature and show-through from tape on reverse at corners, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
