About 4.5" x 7", tipped to a slightly larger sheet with a biographical entryOriginally from a 19th century autograph collection. Neat and legible, but a bit hard to read - he appears concerned with a second order he gave that was not followed. A little miscellaneous writing at the top, but overall clean, attractive, and very good.
