[Rarebooks] FS: Autograph Letter by the Other Speaker at Gettysburg

[Charles Agvent]

EVERETT, Edward. AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED (ALS). Washington DC, 2 
February 1854. One-page letter to Lewis Shearer SIGNED by Everett. In 
full: "I have Your favor of the 30th; when the abstract of the Census to 
which you refer is published, I shall be happy to send you a copy."

Edward Everett is perhaps best known for his oratory powers. It is he 
who gave the "other" address at Gettysburg on 19 November 1863. The next 
day he wrote Lincoln saying, "I should be glad if I could flatter myself 
that I came as near the central idea of the occasion in two hours as you 
did in two minutes." (#020833) $100
