Military mail feather letter dated November 20th 1757 sent to the Regiment clerk Anders Bergström in Härtorp. The letter specifies the marche route to the headquarters in Stralsund for one regiment clerk, one corporal, six riflemen and five soldiers. Unusual to find letters with both manuscript coils and feather, and this is also one of the earliest recorded feather letters.
