PIERCE, Franklin. Autograph letter signed ("Franklin Pierce") to Frank H. Pierce, his nephew, Concord, N. H., 6 September 1866. 2 pages, 8vo, tipped to another sheet . "DO NOT FOR A DAY RELAX YOUR LABOR," PIERCE URGES HIS YOUNG NEPHEW DURING HIS STUDIES AT PRINCETON. He suspects that young Pierce--like most undergraduates, and indeed, like Pierce himself during his early years at Bowdoin--is occupying himself with things other than his studies. "The letter which I received from you soon after your examination at Princeton led me to expect another soon but none has been received. I hope you are not ill again. Kirk returned to resume his studies at the commercial College last week. My health is apparently firm again. Is your room satisfactorily furnished and are your studies and other matters going smoothly with you[?]. If you find yourself better fitted than most of your class, which your advantages would lead me to expect, do not for a day relax your labor, but make but make [ sic ] the most of it. Write me." Frank H. Pierce became the former President's principal legatee in 1869.
