Click on an image to enlarge
Here is a wonderful piece that is ready to be hung on your relic room wall. This is an original Confederate appointment paper. This is on fine paper with the heading from the Confederate States of America War Department in Richmond and is dated December 19th 1862. It is appointing Captain George M. Williams as Assistant Quartermaster in the 9th Virginia Battalion. In the lower right hand corner, it is signed by Confederate Cabinet Member James A. Seddon (1815-1800) who served as Confederate Secretary of War from November 1862 to January of 1865. Seddon graduated from the University Of Virginia Law School and served in the U.S. Congress until 1851 because of poor health. This declining health forced his retirement from Confederate service in 1865. The wooden frame measures 15 inches by 16-1/2 inches in overall size. It makes a fine display!
