Dated “Headquarters of the Gulf / New Orleans, Aug. 18, 1862.” One page in ink, 5” x 8. Exhibits fold-marks. Else VG plus. Text:

“The Louisiana State Bank will pay the coupons of the Union Bank will pay the coupons of the Union Bank in favor of Mst. Matthew Morgan & Sons of New York. By order of Maj. Gen. Butler / Cmmdg. / A.F. Puffer / Lieut & A.D.C.”
