ALS, one page, 8.5 x 13, April 1, 1833. Letter to Alpheus Bigelow, in part: "The inclosed affidavit of John J. Roberts has been forwarded to the Department of War and returned for the want of your certificate to his credibility. If you will insert a certificate (like this, 'I certify that John J. Roberts whose signature is affixed to the foregoing affidavit is known to me, that he is a reputable person…) between the oath and the clerks certificate you will confer a great favour upon Mr. Livermore." Pierce signs with his initials, "F. P.," at the conclusion of a short postscript: "Please return the affidavit to me as soon as convenient by mail." Reverse of the letter addressed in Pierce's own hand. In fine condition, with intersecting folds.
