ALS, one page, 7.25 x 9.75, January 15, 1850. Letter to J. Treadwell Esquire. In part: “The presence of various circumstances have prevented an earlier reply to your very obliging letter informing me of the honor done me by the Knickerbocker Society of your college. I beg you to assure the Society that I feel deeply and gratefully sensible of the distinguished marks of esteem and good will with which they have honored me.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds and scattered toning.
