About This Item
HORACE GREELEY (1811-1872). Greeley was a prominent newspaper editor and a Presidential candidate in 1872. He is best remembered for the quote “Go West, young man”, and he signed Jefferson Davis’s bail bond in May 1867. ALS. 1pg. 5” x 8”. September 3, 1868. New York. An autograph letter signed “Horace Greeley” on his “Union League Club” letterhead. He scrawled to Charles Gould: “I am obliged to go out of town today, and want One Thousand dollars. In my father’s absence, I ask you to send it to me for thirty days on the note in care of W.O. Bartlett herewith presented.” The letter has light wrinkling in the top right, a drop of ink in the middle of the page and is in very good condition.
