(1835 – 1912) American politician, register of the United States Mint in 1857, chief coiner and superintendent of the Philadelphia Mint. In 1878, he twice declined to serve as director of United States Mint, offered by President Hayes. In 1879, he became the Chief Executor in the Philadelphia Mint. A.L.S. on official U.S. Mint letterhead, 1p. 8vo., Philadelphia, to "Mr. Calhoun" who is apparently associated with the mint. He is pleased that Calhoun's eyesight is improving and regrets he has been unable to visit. He adds: "...you must stay away until you can return with perfect safety. If you can't come for a month, it won't make any difference..."
