Description

Rutherford B. Hayes

Form letter, one page, 5.5 x 8.5, July 23, 1889. Letter sent to Hiram Hitchcock of New Hampshire following the death of his wife. In part: “The friends who have sent telegraphic messages, floral tributes and newspaper articles, tokens of their regard for Mrs. Hayes, and of sympathy with me and my family, are so numerous that I can not, by the use of pen alone…suitably express to all of them my gratitude and thanks.” At the conclusion, Hayes writes, “With all thankfulness for your welcome remembrance,” and signs using his uncommon full name. In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
