Significant ALS signed “Wellington,” one page, 4.75 x 7.5, May 28, 1820. Handwritten letter to a lord, in full: "I will dine with you on the 19th June with great pleasure unless the Duke of York should defer the Celebration of the Anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo that day from Sunday which is just probable. If therefore Tuesday the 20th will suit you as well I should prefer it, as I am the more certain of being able to wait upon you." In fine condition, with slightly irregular light toning. Wellington earned immortality for his stunning defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte at Waterloo on June 18, 1815; in this letter, he looks forward to celebrating the five-year anniversary of his historic victory.
