Here is a tough to find Confederate autograph. This is a fine in k signature of Confederate general John Bullock Clark , Jr. John Bullock Clark Jr. (January 14, 1831 – September 7, 1903) was an American politician and military officer. He was a general in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War and a Reconstruction era five-term U.S. Congressman from Missouri. He entered the Confederate army as a lieutenant and was promoted successively to the rank of captain and then major in the 6th Missouri Infantry. He saw action in several battles, including Carthage and Springfield. Promoted to the regiment's colonelcy, Clark commanded a brigade at the Battle of Pea Ridge. Primarily serving in Missouri and Arkansas under Thomas C. Hindman, he was rewarded with a commission as a brigadier general on March 6, 1864. He then fought in the Trans-Mississippi Theater under John S. Marmaduke and Jo Shelby, including Price's Raid. The autograph is on a small piece of paper that measures 4-7/8ths inches by 2 inches in overall size. It is accompanied by a modern Xerox image of Clark in his Confederate uniform.
