Mifflin, Thomas. Partly-printed document signed ("Tho Mifflin") as Governor of Pennsylvania, on vellum, 11 x 20 in. (Philadelphia), 23 July 1798. Countersigned by James Trimble as Deputy Secretary. Granting to Mary Campbell "a certain tract of land, called Green park situated on the waters of little sugar Creek in Luzerne County…" The large paper and wax seal at upper leaf is intact and Mifflin has signed boldly just below it--nearly 3 in. long. Another paper seal is affixed to the back of the document; on it, an embossed image portrays Liberty with a sword, staff and cap standing atop a defeated lion, all of which is surrounded by the legend: "BOTH CAN'T SURVIVE". Very fine; two small natural holes in the vellum.
Estimated Value $300 - 400.
