One year before being elected President, Hayes writes to James Monroe, a U.S. congressman from Ohio: "I think of Mr. Bell as you do. I know him well. I can say nothing more definite now. Excuse this short note. I am much crowded with work." On the bottom of the same page, James Monroe writes to Mr. Bell, informing him that "The prospect seems to be good for you," probably for some position Mr. Bell wanted. Light toning; some discoloration at left edge. Overall very good.
Estimated Value $600 - 800.
