Description: Attention Collectors!!! You are bidding on a hand-written, signed note by Isaac F. Redfield (1804 - 1876). The note is dated October 10, 1865. The note is from the State of Vermont Executive Chamber, Montpelier, and is certifying an action by His Excellency William Slade (Governor of Vermont). Note is signed by Isaac F. Redfield, Judge of the Supreme Court. About Isaac Redfield: Isaac Fletcher Redfield (April 10, 1804, Weathersfield, Vermont – March 23, 1876, Charlestown, Massachusetts) was an American lawyer, judge, and legal scholar. He was a member of the Vermont Supreme Court from 1836 to 1859 and Chief Judge 1852-1859. Redfield was the oldest of twelve children of Dr. Peleg Redfield and Hannah Parker, a merchant's daughter. In 1806 the family moved to Coventry in the frontier region of northern Vermont. Isaac Redfield graduated from Dartmouth College in 1825 and was admitted to the Vermont bar in 1827. After a three-year term as state's attorney for Orleans County, Redfield was elected to the state supreme court by the legislature and remained on the court until he declined re-election in 1860. In 1861 he moved to Massachusetts, in part to further his legal scholarship. He was appointed a special counsel by the State Department in 1867 to recover property of the former Confederate government and spent 1867-8 in England and France on that task. From 1857-1861 Redfield was a professor of medical jurisprudence at Dartmouth College. In 1861 he became one of the editors of the American Law Register and contributed many articles in addition to his editing work. It would be great if this letter could find its way back to the Redfield family or the Slade family!!! This is a one-of-a-kind, rare and terrific item to add to a collection! Great gift idea!
