Description
George Armstrong Custer: A Fine 7th Cavalry Signed Letter Regarding Indian Scouts. Custer writes to the War Department in June 1874, inquiring whether General Order No. 52 of 1872 applies to enlisted Indian scouts. On verso, a reply from Adjutant General E. O. Townsend advises Custer that Indian Scouts who re-enlist after five years of continuous service are entitled to benefits under the 1872 Act.This 7.5" x 9.5" letter has exceptional display appeal. Condition is outstanding and it features a large, bold Custer signature.
From the Glenwood Swanson Collection.
