    Description

    1880 letter written and signed by Samuel W. Crawford (1829-1892), a civil war brigadier general who had been the post surgeon at Fort Sumter.  He was wounded at Antietam and was in significant action at Gettysburg; he was present at Appamattox.  Letter's pages are adhered at left (like a hinge) from a prior mounting but open out to be read; letter acknowledges election to the board of directors of a gettysburg memorial association; on stationery of the Union Club.  Neat item; he was active in preservation of the Gettysburg battlefield and there is a statue of him at Gettysburg, dedicated in 1988.
