* John Adams & Thomas Jefferson
* re. the death of Patrick Henry
The ftpg. has two Acts of Congress each signed in script type by the President: John Adams, and in block type by the Vice President: Th. Jefferson (hole in front leaf affects the first Adams signature).
But more interesting is: "The Legacy of Another Dead Patriot of Virginia" which begins on the ftpg. & concludes on pg. 2 with a letter "To Archibald Blair" dated Jan. 8, 1799 and signed in type: P. Henry. Patrick Henry died just 5 months prior. Also a nice prefacing paragraph concerning Patrick Henry and George Washington (see). Pg. 2 also has a lengthy letter from the President to Hon. Thomas Pinkney signed: John Adams.
Four pages, various foxing, a dime-size hole near the bottom of the front leaf.
