Ulysses S. Grant Good content A.L.S. signed twice, 4pp. 8vo., Munich Sep. 14, 1878 to his son and stock-trading partner Ulysses S. Grant, Jr.. While touring Europe, he writes: ...your ma and I are very well. . I have fallen off twenty-five pounds and feel much better for it,-that I can walk now like a boy - of sixty... Yellow Jacket [stock] was up to E20 My 2, 000 shares cost E& 00... I want you to subscribe E500.00 for me to the Yellow [jacket] fund. If I have not got the money in bank, you can sell a bond to pay it... I shall be very glad to get home again and settle down in a home of my own. Of course, within a few years Grants investments would evaporate and he would be left penniless. Folds, light soiling.
