American Exchange Bank Check dated Oct. 12, 1867 and signed, "Edwards Pierrepont."
Edwards Pierrepont was a well-known lawyer, judge, and orator before serving as US Attorney under President Ulysses. S. Grant.
Pierrepont was a Civil War Unionist supporting President Abraham Lincoln who privately advised Lincoln on issues of the day both before and after he was elected president. As a Lincoln confidant and supporter, Pierrepont was among those who organized the president's 1864 reelection effort. When the campaign was aborted by an assassin's bullet, the government appointed Pierrepont to handle the prosecution of John H. Surratt for his part in Lincoln's murder.
