PLEASE NOTE: This week we are selling property from a great collection, celebrating Abraham Lincoln and the Sesquicentennial of the Civil War. S on any of this great, historical Americana!Joseph Hooker Document SIGNED (1814 - 1879), An early example of Hooker's signature in a manuscript D.S. signed twice, 2p. 8.5 x 12.5", [Mexico City, Feb. 8, 1848] as Assistant Adjutant General under Winfield Scott days after the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The document concerns one of the more vexing issues facing the army under General Scott: atrocities committed by American troops against the civilian population. The document is a report of the military commission headed by Colonel Burnham on several cases before him including "The Case of Private Mulholland of Co K N. Y. Vols... The commission after reconsidering the case... is not disposed too alter the sentence, but fully concur with the General in Chief, in amending the specification of the 2nd charge...to aiding and abetting in a Rape in place of Unsoldierlike conduct highly prejudicial to good order and military discipline…". Joseph Hooker (1814 – 1879), was a career United States Army officer, fought in the Mexican-American War, and was a major general in the Union Army during the American Civil War. Although he served throughout the war, usually with distinction, Hooker is best remembered for his stunning defeat by Confederate General Robert E. Lee at the Battle of Chancellorsville in 1863. He became known as "Fighting Joe" during the Civil War due to civilian clerical error; however, the nickname stuck.Light horizontal folds, very light foxing, else fine.
