Description

Less than two months after becoming POTUS

Partly-printed vellum DS as president, one page, 14.5 x 8.25, April 24, 1809. President Madison grants Henry Kumler a quarter lot of land in Chillicothe, Ohio. Signed at the conclusion by Madison, and countersigned by Secretary of State Robert Smith. Lower left retains the original white paper seal. Impressively matted and framed with a portrait and an engraved plaque to an overall size of 31.75 x 20.75. In very good to fine condition, with intersecting folds and light overall wrinkling. A decidedly early document from Madison, who had been inaugurated as the fourth American president less than two months prior.
