Charlton to conscription when the said Charlton, who was personally present, handed to affiant to read, what he said was his commission as Post Master of the City of Knoxville, Tennessee…stating the same was a good and sufficient exemption of the said Charlton from military service"; two small fold splits, otherwise Very Fine, a wonderful opportunity for the provisional collector to acquire an interesting document directly concerning this important postmaster.Estimate $100 - 150.
