MOREFIELD, Thomas W (1850-?)
Autograph Letter Signed
Supposedly the youngest soldier to enlist in the Civil War; others such as Johnny Clem born 1851 the "Union Drummer Boy of Chickamauga" were indeed younger although Clem did not carry a weapon until later was not officially mustered in and his wages were paid out of donations by the officers. Morefield's credentials therefore appear sound. ALS 1p 8" X 10" Elkhorn WI 1892 March 10. Addressed to W.E. Ambler. Near fine. Slight mailing folds. To a journalist or scholar researching Morefield's claim to fame Morefield transmits a photograph "Coppied from a tin tipe that I had taken soon after I Enlisted" not present. He agrees to "write up my Army Experience I dont know jest what you want do you want to know whare the Regiments went and What we went through I will say this much to you if it hendent of been for the Exposure of Camp life and picket duty and Rheumatism and diseases resulting from Rheumatism that I contracted while In the Army my Experience would been a good one."

Morgan, John Pierpont [JP] J P
John Pierpont Morgan Autograph Signature.
Rare autograph signature from American financier and banker John Pierpont Morgan. Boldly signed in ink on an off-white slip clipped from a document "J. Pierpont Morgan." In fine condition. Matted and framed with a large portrait of Morgan and a biographical placard. The entire piece measures 14.75 inches by 25 inches. As a staple figure in corporate financial history John Pierpont Morgan is known far and wide as America's "greatest banker" Adrian Wooldridge. Morgan began his career in 1837 by joining the family bank "House of Morgan" which grew large enough to save the federal reserve during the depression of 1890 by backing it with $62 million in gold bullion a situation Morgan would become familiar with in his own leadership on Wall Street. Having formed several multinational corporations such as U. S. Steel through the merging of interests Morgan held a colossal amount of power over capital markets in the United States and was able to save the American monetary system from collapse in the financial crisis of 1907. unknown

Illustrated with color plates and maps by Cyrus LeRoy Baldridge. The Adventures of Hajji Baba of Ispahan was first published in 1824.
