President John Adams Signed Letter To his Friend Elkanah Watson from December 31, 1822.
The Letter Reads “I have received your letter of the 26-with my blind eyes, and palsied hands-tantas componere lites non possum (I cannot settle so many disputes).”
The holographic portions of the letter have been excised and affixed to a larger sheet. It’s in very good to fine condition, with haloing, scattered light staining, and toning. According to the National Archives, this was the last (and briefest) of five letters written to Watson by the 87-year old Adams in December of 1822, with the latter impaired by poor vision and arthritis, seemingly to exhausted to comply with any great detail.
