Central Pacific Railroad Land Deed signed by Leland Stanford, 1884.
Printed Central Pacific Railroad Land Deed for the sale of property. This Deed was a sale of 160 acres in County of Sutter, California to Thomas Brewer, Jr. The deed was hand signed by Leland Stanford, President, James O'B Gunn, Trustee, Silas W. Sanderson, Trustee, E. H. Miller, Jr., Secretary, as officers of the Central Pacific Railroad Company. The document was notarized by Charles J. Torbert.
