MARTIN E. GREEN
(1815 - 1863) Confederate brigadier general, a key organizer of the Missouri State Guard in northern Missouri. Excessively rare war-date pencil signature, 3 ¼" x 1 ½", likely cut from a field order: "M. E. Green Brig'd.r. Genl. With Gen. [Sterling] Price". Very good. Green commanded a brigade of Bowen's Division in the siege of Vicksburg. During the siege , on June 27, 1863 he was struck in the head and killed by a bullet from a Federal sharpshooter. Green's signature is a legendary rarity.
