Docketing signature, “D. Ayers,” on the reverse of a manuscript document, 8 x 12.75, dated November 10, 1837. Document is a land survey done by J. E. Scott, and signed by him at the conclusion. Survey is for 3,125,000 leagues of land belonging to another gentleman, with a sketch of the tract in the upper left corner. Front of the document is also signed “L. P. More,” “S. Connell,” and “James Connell.” Small separations and repairs to horizontal folds, scattered toning and soiling, a bit of light paper loss, some slight ink erosion, and a few pencil notations, otherwise very good condition.
