Manuscript D.S., in French, stationary imprinted with a royal emblem under which are the printed words, “Jacques I, Emperor,” small 4to, “At the Palace,” October 15, 1804.&#13;

He was assassinated two years later by former fellows Henri Christophe and Alexandre Sabes Petion near Port-au-Prince.  A document from an important year in the history of Haiti.  Dessalines’ autograph is the most scarce of the four early Haitian leaders.  &#13;
