Fabled Confederate general (1833–1864) best known for his consummate skill in reconnaissance and as a cavalry officer. After leading successful offensive actions during the Northern Virginia Campaign—as well as a 'late,' disastrous showing at Gettysburg, which led to a personal rebuke by Lee—Stuart was killed during the Overland Campaign at the age of 31. Manuscript DS, signed “Witness my hand & official seal, J. E. B. Stuart,” one page, 7.5 x 12, December 5, 1860. Stuart notarizes an affidavit swearing that clothing, camp, and garrison equipage—including metallic scales, leather stocks, canteens, bedsacks, axes, and iron pots—were "left in 'F. Comp: Store Room at Fort Riley K.T. by order of 1st Lieut. J. B. McIntyre R.Q.M. 1st Car. he not having sufficient transportation to convey them to Fort Wise K.T. where the Company was ordered, and that Capt. Geo. H. Steuart is in no manner to blame for the loss of any of the above property." Neatly signed at the conclusion in ink by Stuart, and embossed with his notary seal at the lower left. In very fine condition.
