This document is a fragment of a letter that George Washington Campbell wrote to Andrew Jackson. The first paragraph mentions that William C. C. Claiborne's appointment as governor of the Territory of Orleans (later the state of Louisiana) has not yet been confirmed, and the second lists the managers of the impeachment as Joseph Nicholson, Randolph (which could refer to either John or Thomas Mann), Caesar Rodney, Peter Early, John Boyle, and Roger Nelson.

This collection consists of a commission, dated October 22, 1807, from the Governor of the Territory of Orleans, William C.C. Claiborne, appointing Paul D'Arcantel as Justice of the Peace for the Parish of New Orleans.
