Partly-printed vellum DS, signed "Th: Jefferson" as president and "James Madison" as secretary of state, one page, 10.25 x 15.5, June 22, 1805. Scalloped-top ship's papers issued to the "Ship Mary of Charleston, Gilbert Fuller, master and commander…mounted with no guns navigated by thirteen men to pass with her Company Passengers, Goods and Merchandise without any hindrance, seizure or molestation." Signed at the conclusion by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. The lower left corner retains the original white wafer seal. In fine condition, with trimmed edges, two small holes to the upper left corner, and Madison's signature quite light but fully legible. An attractive example with a particularly bold presidential Jefferson signature.
