Description

Ulysses Grant signs a Membership Certificate for the Jo Davies (County) Soldiers Monument Association, as President of the association.

This is a handsome, clean document with wonderful iconography, being engravings of Lincoln (surrounded by eagle and flags), Liberty and Union, and soldiers as miners and blacksmiths (occupations of the area).  A great display item with an excellent signature. 

The certificate remains unaccomplished, as the monument was never built due to Grant moving away.  Countersigned by J.C. Smith as Secretary. 

Grant, Ulysses S.  Document, signed.  Galena: 28 Aug. 1865.  Sm. folio.; 1p.; matted.
