A Document Signed as president, on vellum, Washington, June 15, 1826, granting 80 acres in Franklin, Missouri to William Miller of Calloway County.

The document is countersigned by land commissioner George Graham and its seal is still present. The county history states that Miller, who was a ranger in Nathan Boone’s Company in the War of 1812, was such a large man that he could hardly pass through the door of a house.
