- Early 20th Century Generals Group of
Early 20th Century Generals Group of Autographs Including Malin Craig Lot of 5 including: Malin Craig ALS 1922; Frederick Funston TLS 1907; Leonard Wood MOH TLS 1925; R.L. Bullard TLS 1920; and Hugh L. Scott TLS 1909 on West Point letterhead. TLS 1p. 15 Jan. 1907 St. Louis MO (HQ Southwestern Division letterhead). Frederick Funston Brig. Gen. Funston (1865-1917) was too short and underweight to qualify for West Point. His military career began in the service of Cuba fighting for independence from Spain. Two years later he would be fighting with the 20th Kansas in the Spanish-American War this time in the Philippines. He was again denied a commission but his capture of Philippine President Emilio Aguinaldo changed all of that. Funston received an appointment as Brigadier General and a Medal of Honor for his actions. 1906 found him in command of the Presidio of San Francisco when the earthquake hit. Although martial law was never declared it was Funston who decided to save what he could of the city by creating a firebreak. He also order that looters be shot on sight. It probably did not eliminate looting and there are reports of honest citizens being shot trying to rescue some of their belongings but many think that things probably would have been worse without this heavy-handed approach given the state of affairs in the city. Funston indirectly worked himself to death preparing for the U.S. entry into WWI in 1917 succumbing to a massive heart attack in San Antonio TX. TNS 1p 29 Jan. 1925 Manila on Office of the Governor General letterhead. Signed by Leonard Wood. Leonard Wood (1860-1927) was trained as a physician and took a position as an Army contract physician in 1885. He was stationed in Arizona and participated in the last campaign against Geronimo. He received the Medal of Honor in 1898 for carrying dispatches through enemy territory and taking command of a unit whose officers had been lost. Wood was personal physician to Cleveland and McKinley until 1898 when the Spanish-American War broke out. He had developed a friendship with Teddy Roosevelt and together they organized the ''Rough Riders.'' Wood remained as Military Governor of Santiago in 1898 and of Cuba 1899-1902. He proceeded to the Philippines in 1902 and was appointed Army Chief of Staff by Taft in 1910 the only medical officer to hold that position. While in this position he started developing a ''preparedness'' program similar to today's ROTC. He became embroiled in politics at the start of WWI and spent most of the war training at Camp Funston. He retired from the Army in 1921 and spent the next six years as Governor-General of the Philippines. He died from complications of surgery for a brain tumor. ALS 2pp 5.25 x 7 in. on Cavalry School Fort Riley KS letterhead 21 Jan. 1922. Malin Craig (1875-1945) graduated from USMA in 1898 and served in the Spanish-American War immediately after graduation. He was sent to China during the Boxer Rebellion and later was sent to the Philippines. Attended the Infantry and Cavalry School and Army War College between postings. He went to France with the AEF during WWI. He had a variety of postings before being appointed as Chief of Staff of the Army from 1935 - 1939 then retiring in 1939. However the advent of WWII resulted in him being recalled to head the Personnel Board for the Secretary of War. He died in Washington in July 1945 just before the war ended. TNS 1p 5 x 8 in. 16 Mar. 1920 on HQ Eastern Division letterhead Governor's Island NY. Signed by R.L. Bullard as Lieut. General. Bullard (1861-1947) graduated from USMA in 1885 and while he served in the later Indian Wars and Spanish-American and Philippine-American Wars he seems to be best known for his actions during WWI. He quickly rose to Maj. General and command of the ''Big Red One'' (1st ID). When Pershing created the Second Army he put Bullard in as its first commander with the rank of Lieutenant General. Bullard retired in 1925 to write. TNS 1p 15 June 1909 on USMA letterhead West Point NY. Signed by Hugh Lenox Scott as Superintendent of the Academy. Letter to the Mayor of Newburgh NY sending regrets that the cadets cannot participate in the Hudson-Fulton commemoration since they have a previous engagement on that date. Hugh Lenox Scott (1853-1934) graduated from West Point in 1876 in the heat of the Indian Wars in the west. One of his first postings was to mark out the graves for Custer's men on the Little Big Horn battle site. In 1890-91 he was sent to suppress the Ghost Dance movement commanding the last Indian Troop in the Army composed primarily of Kiowa Comanche and Apache Indians. He had post-war positions in Cuba and the Philippines before being appointed superintendent of USMA. He was Chief of Staff of the Army from 1914-1917. His major roles in these later years were diplomatic ones especially along the Mexican Border. After retirement in 1919 he served for a decade on the Board of Indian Commissioners. Condition: Three have tape remains. The Bullard letter has ink from the Funston letter on it and the Funston letter has ink smear apparently from water damage.
