Condición: Very good. - A few words penned on his 4-5/8 inch high by 5 inch wide stationary with his pictorial seal embossed in blue at the top. The seal bears Coleridge's motto "Time Deum Cole Regem" embossed within a belt framing ears of wheat in front of a cross, an otter "statant" (i.e. standing with all four paws on the ground) in the foreground. Coleridge has penned but a few words "I am Madam faithfully yours John Duke Coleridge". Once folded, the note is mounted with glue from the verso onto heavier stock clipped from an album. Very good. The English lawyer, judge and Liberal politician John Duke Coleridge, 1st Baron Coleridge (1820-1894) was the great-nephew of the poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. An attorney practicing on the western circuit, Coleridge held several appointments and was elected to the House of Commons for Exeter. Appointed Solicitor-General under Gladstone, he was promoted to Attorney-General for England and Wales. He was subsequently appointed Chief Justice for the Common Pleas and then Lord Chief Justice of England. He was recognized by the "Women's Suffrage Journal" as a "firm and consistent" supporter of women's suffrage.
