Three separate printed reports, all apparently removed from a larger book, dating from 1810-1813, 5 x 8.5, all printed by Roger C. Weightman, Washington City, regarding Daniel Boone's Petition, first to the House and ultimately the Senate, requesting a grant of 1,000 arpens of land which he claims were promised to him for services rendered to the government of the United States. In very good condition, with a bit of light foxing to one report, with heavier toning and foxing to the remaining two, and marginal binding holes to left edges. Despite his daring acts of courage and his status as America's first folk hero, his petition was at first denied. RR Auction COA.
