Partial ALS, one page both sides, 7 x 4.5, Impelle Obstantia embossed letterhead, no date. In the last few pages of a letter, Arthur writes to a Miss Townsend, in part: “Pray pardon my tardy response to your note of the 19th inst. I left town so hurriedly on that day that a pile of letters remained unanswered and even unopened…” The letter then continues on the reverse in lieu of missing pages, “…to Washington in a few days, and have engagements for every evening in the meantime. I will be glad to take the opportunity when I come again some time next month.” In fine condition, with a strip of reparative tape along the left edge. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
