About this Item
Description:
Single sheet, 10 x 15 3/4 inches. Old fold lines. Some minor paper discoloration. Very good. Manuscript form detailing the return of survey equipment, namely tents, due to wear. "I certify that the three wall tents, flies, & poles were entirely worn out & necessarily expended in & for protecting public property," signed by W.E. Jones at Fort Ewell, Texas on December 31, 1853. William E. "Grumble" Jones (1824-1864) was commissioned a brevet second lieutenant in the U.S. Mounted Rifles, serving with the cavalry fighting Indians in the west. In 1857, he resigned his commission to become a farmer; he later re-entered active military duty, however, serving as a Brigadier General in the Confederate Army. He was killed at the Battle of Piedmont on June 5, 1864. This is a nice piece of manuscript material from his time on the frontier, signed by him in two places. Seller Inventory # WRCAM41419
