- Lot Description
Partly printed document signed by Tench Coxe, as Commissioner of the Revenue, to William Webb. Treasury Department, 19 April 1795. 1 page, 4to. With integral free franked address panel signed by Coxe and "Free" stamp with dated cancel.
Tench Coxe (1755-1824) was a political economist and Pennsylvania delegate to the Continental Congress who wrote prolifically under the pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Revolutionary period. He served as the 1st Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under Alexander Hamilton during Washington's presidency.
In 1792, he was appointed Commissioner of Revenue, and it is in this role that he issued this circular, requesting "specific knowledge of the course of our foreign trade in its latest stages...you will therefore be pleased to complete and transmit as early as possible, the return of exports from your district to the 31st of March 1795."
A fine early Treasury document.
