List of patents for the year 1849. On the first page there is a note written (removed from a letter)and signed by Abraham Lincoln, as President. The note, which is held in place by corner tabs, and can be removed, measures 2.875" x 3", and reads "Submitted to the Sec. of War A. Lincoln Aug. 6, 1862".

Three months later Lincoln relieved McClellan of his command for his lack of aggressiveness in fighting the Confederate Army.
