ATTEMPTING TO SETTLE AN ESTATE AND COMMENTING ON HIS RECENT GOVERNMENT WORK, in an autograph letter, signed by Poinsett in Charleston, May 1, 1841, to Robert Gilmor in Baltimore, in part: "I find that I have in my hands about three thousand dollars belonging to the estate of Col. Bacon which I am ready and anxious to divide among the heirs [details follow] ... We reached home safely and in the midst of my old associates the past four years seem like a troubled dream [Poinsett had just finished serving as Martin Van Buren's Secretary of War]." por POINSETT, Joel R.

4to. Two-pages, approximately 125 words; addressed verso of blank integral leaf and docketed [by Gilmor?]. Gilmor (1774-1848), a merchant and collector, was "one of the most significant art collectors and patrons in the United States before 1850" (Lance Humphries, "Robert Gilmor, Jr. [1774-1848]: Baltimore Collector and American Art Patron," UVA Library online abstract). Old fold lines, seal break repaired, but very good.
