HAMILTON, ALEXANDER. 1755-1804. Autograph Note Signed ("A. Hamilton"), concerning the transmittal of certificates of registry, 1 pp, 4to (193 x 192 mm), the Treasury Department [Philadelphia], July 5, 1792, trimmed at bottom edge with traces of missing text, wax seal at left margin, small tear at fold crease from left margin. Written by Hamilton as Secretary of the Treasury, this brief note makes reference to what was probably a more detailed one: "Herewith are transmitted parts of the margins of two certificates of Registry issue at your office according to the memo subjoined...." A fine example of the hand of one of America's most important founders, shortly after the establishment of the U.S. Treasury under his direction. Verkaufsraum-Bekanntmachungen The note is likely in a secretarial hand, and signed by Hamilton in holograph.
