    Lot of 3 Princeton University Pamphlets SIGNED Cherokee Chief William P Ross
    Description
    Condition as pictured.  All are complete and not missing any pages.  The 3rd pamphlet regarding Bacchus is signed on the inside first page as shown.
    Ross is a VERY tough signature to find, and here we have 3 examples, all signed on pamphlets from Princeton.  My research shows that the Princeton University archives do NOT have signed copies of these 3 pamphlets, that tells you just how rare they are.  Ross graduated first in his class from Princeton in 1844.
    Ross served in several different roles in the Cherokee Nation. By then, his uncle had been elected as principal chief. Ross became clerk of the Cherokee Senate in 1843. He became the founder and editor of the
    Cherokee Advocate
    . Later, he was appointed director of the Cherokee Male and Female seminaries, then served as Treasurer of the Cherokee Nation.
    Ross was chosen to lead the Nation by the National Council on October 19, 1866, and served for several months until the election in 1867. He was later elected to succeed
    Lewis Downing
    and served from 1872 to 1875. After his term ended, Ross retired to Fort Gibson, where he became a merchant and practiced law. He died there on July 20, 1891.
