ALS signed “M. R. Waite,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 8, January 13, 1876. Letter to James J. Christie, in part: "Permit me to thank you for the copy of McDonald's Manual, which you were kind enough to send me yesterday—when the messenger handed it to me, I was under the impression that I already had a copy and so said to him, but upon examination I find I was mistakened—It was Barclay's Digest which I had…I see that the Manual is a most convenient book of reference." In fine condition, with a short split along the hinge. Accompanied by an unsigned engraved portrait. From the Collection of Dr. Lawrence E. Miller.
