Partly-printed vellum DS, signed “George R.,” one page, 13.25 x 9.25, October 24, 1806. King George III appoints James Saunders as "Adjutant in Our Twenty fifth Regiment of Light Dragoons commanded by Trusty and Welbeloved Lieutenant General Richard Rich Wilford." Signed in the upper left by the king and countersigned below by Robert Stewart, Viscount Castlereagh. The upper left bears original white embossed seal. In fine condition, with some smudging to the signature. By this time the king had begun to go blind and suffer from mental illness, thus his rather erratic signature. Accompanied by an engraving of the king with a preprinted autograph.
