^Lot 86 James Monroe and John Calhoun

Partly-printed DS as president, one page, 15.25 x 10.75, June 1, 1824. President Monroe appoints Dudley W. Allanson a “Second Lieutenant in the Fifth Regiment of Infantry.” Signed at the conclusion by Monroe and countersigned by Secretary of War John Calhoun, “J. C. Calhoun.” A couple of separations along intersecting folds, scattered toning and soiling, light creasing and rippling, and Monroe’s signature a shade light, otherwise very good condition. The paper seal is intact and slightly worn.
