He was the attorney in some very prominent Slave cases!

Senior counsel for Confederate President Jefferson Davis in his treason case against the U.S. government

Nominated for President of the United States in 1872


(1804-84) Born in New York City, he studied law, and in 1824, before he had reached the statutory age of 21, was admitted to the bar, and soon became highly respected in his profession. He earned acclaim and a national reputation for his successful handling of the "Forrest Divorce Case." Other celebrated cases that he handled include the "Slave Jack case" in 1835; the "Lemmon Slave case" in 1856; the Jefferson Davis treason case against the U.S. Government in which he was senior counsel for the ex-Confederate President; he also appeared on the bond and bail case of Jeff Davis; and he played a prominent role in the prosecution of Boss Tweed and members of the "Tweed Ring," in 1871, eventually destroying the ring at the height of their power in N.Y.C. He was a presidential elector in 1852, voting for Franklin Pierce, and served as U.S. Attorney, for the Southern District of New York, 1853-54. He was nominated for President of the United States by the "Bourbon Democrats" during the 1872 election. He had close ties with Southern Democrats because of his sympathy for slavery and the right of secession. In the controversial electoral contest of 1876, he appeared as an advocate for Democrat Samuel J. Tilden.

Signature with sentiment: 3 5/8 x 1 1/8, in ink, Yrs. &c, Ch. O'Conor. Age toning. Very desirable Jefferson Davis related autograph.
