In March of 1863, the legendary Kit Carson first moved subjugated Mescalero Indians to Bosque Redondo, where a new reservation and outpost was being established near the Pecos River - the first incarnation of Fort Sumner. The summer, fall and winter, Carson campaigned relentlessly against the stronger Navajos. By the summer of 1864, Carson's scorched-earth campaign had led to almost 8,000 defeated Navajos surrendering at Fort Defiance and Fort Wingate. Gen. Carleton ordered these bands forcibly escorted in the summer of 1864 to the newly established Fort Sumner. Dr. George Courtright was part of the new garrison troops sent to Fort Sumner from Fort Union. Est. $150-200 (Image)

"Fort Webster, N Mexico". Military endorsement by "Assist. Surgeon, T.C. Henry U.S.A., Fort Webster, N.

Fort Webster was established in Oct. 1851, occupying a Mexican fort built in 1834 by Francisco Elguea to protect the Santa Rita copper mines. It was abandoned in 1853 and its troops transferred to Fort Thorn. This is the only known cover to or from Fort Webster. It is believed the cover was originally sent out-of-mails to Henry, and then re-used by him; by not crossing out the first address, it served as an effective return address. Est. $400-600 (Image)

The addressee, Burgess Allison (1753-1827) was a native of Bordentown, N.J. and studied at Rhode Island College. He became pastor of a Baptist congregation and founder of a classical boarding school in his hometown. After he retired from his school in 1796, he devoted his energies to invention and the improvement of machines, among them the polygraph, physiognotrace, and paper ruling machine. John Isaac Hawkins shared with Allison a passion for scientific experiment and together they patented an improved method for making paper from cornstalks. When his financial resources plummeted, Allison resumed his Bordentown boarding school post in October 1801 and accepted the local pulpit. This letter congratulates. Est. $300-400 (Image)
