 TEXT OF
HISTORICAL INTEREST: Entire letter sent to San Juan (Argentina) on 1/JAN/1866, franked with 10c. (four complete margins), bearing a "CANCELLED" handstamp and a red SAN FELIPE datestamp (without year). The lengthy text comments on the difficulty the
sender was experiencing in selling cattle, as the business had come to a standstill due to the war and the blockade of the ports. It also mentions that consumption was very low, that in the past the largest sales were normally made by ships bound for
Peru and in the bay to merchant vessels, and that prices would remain depressed until the end of the war. Steers were being sold for $10, whereas they would have been worth twice as much in San Juan. The letter also mentions that people in Chile were
very angry with Argentine President Mitre because of his lack of support for Chile in this war, etc., etc. Excellent quality, a very interesting letter of great historical significance! (Image)
