Letter written to, I believe, a doctor F.A. Davidson, Hillsborough, London County, Virginia on December 20, 1837 regarding Rock Minerals purchased for him, A Mr. Charles Crukshard states "I have merely time to say a few words before dispatching the coal which I have just purchased, agreeable to your request. I have sent you the best piece of (autgnolite) which I have been able to procure and some speciments for schorl" He mentions Rock Mineral speciments from Liverpool and Elba Island (Tuscany, Italy, I believe). The 2 page letter is in excellent readable condition. There is some wear but considering its age, I am sure you will enjoy reading it. It mesure 9 1/2 x 8". Buyer has 10 days after receiving the item to return it for money back. Buyer pays for shipping. Exact shipping cost will be determined by highest bidder's zip code. We will be happy to answer any questions or concerns before item ends. Thanks for looking |
