==Description of letter==<br />
<blockquote><br />
Wythe, George (1726-1806: Virginia). Autograph letter signed ("G. Wythe" with large paraph), 1 page, 4 (8 3/8 x 7 in.; 213 x 178 mm), n.p., 18 October 1770, to Mr. Allason; address panel on verso in Wythe's hand, seal hole repaired A legal favor for a sick friend: "Mr. Waller being so indisposed that he cannot attend to business, the letter enclosing a case for his advice, was put into my hands, with a desire to consider the questions you propounded, and let you know my sentiments upon them... The fee you sent to him is returned, as I am not the person intended to be consulted, and am only desirous of doing a kind office for my very good friend...<br />
