Prominent Virginia Confederate Politicians

James M. Mason: (1798-1871) Descended from a very prominent Virginia family, he studied law and later served as a U.S. Senator and Congressman. While a senator, he drafted the "Fugitive Slave Act" in 1850. As a member of Confederate Congress, he was sent to France in 1861 with John Slidell, to try and gain the support of France for the Confederate cause. The two diplomats were seized on the high seas while onboard the British mail steamer "Trent," which resulted in what is called the "Trent Affair," a highly publicized event that almost started off another war between the U.S. and England. This episode also created a great deal of sympathy for the Confederacy in Great Britain.

Robert M.T. Hunter: (1809-87) After graduating from the University of Virginia, he practiced law and entered politics, serving as legislator, U.S. Congressman, Speaker of the House, and U.S. Senator. He was a close friend and political ally of John C. Calhoun and favored not only states rights but also slavery. Resigning as a U.S. Congressman, he sat in the Confederate Provisional Congress and succeeded Robert Toombs in July 1861 as Secretary of State. He later served as C.S.A. Senator. In the final days of the Civil War, he attended the Hampton Roads Peace Conference, and was arrested by Federal authorities after the Confederate surrender.

Signatures: 7 1/4 x 3 1/4, in ink, J.M. Mason and R.M.T. Hunter. Virginia is written above the two signatures in another hand. Desirable pair.
