ALS signed “A. Burr,” one page, 7.75 x 9.5, August 17. In part: “Since writing to you last evening, I have reflected further on your Dennings matter & write this note to express a wish for an interview with you. You state that the matter is very important—It is than the more necessary that many possible preparation should be made to meet the question and this you will perceive to be the more impervious where you shall recollect that if the chancellor should decide against you, it would be extremely difficult, if not impracticable, to avoid or repel the effect of his order. At this distance & in this way, it is not possible that we should have a communication sufficiently free & rapid to enable us to concert the best means of defence.” In very good condition, with scattered soiling and staining, repaired areas of paper loss at edges, and reinforcements made to edge tears on the reverse. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
