About This Item
Andrew Jackson bought commodities for the Hermitage from his neighbor Francis Saunders. Among these were wheat and salt. Saunders was also a court commissioner in Tennessee, so Jackson dealt with him on various legal matters as well.
Autograph document signed, Tennessee, September 6, 1824, being a promissory note evidencing a debt Jackson owed Saunders. “On the second day of November next, I promise to pay to Francis Saunders or order, payable and negotiable at the Branch Bank of the State of Tennessee at Nashville, for value received. Witness my hand that this 6th September 1824.”
1824 was the year Jackson first ran for president. John Quincy Adams was declared victor in the House of Representatives. In 1828 Jackson would run again and win.
