Joanna Southcott, English prophet and writer. · Autograph signature on "sealing" document of Jeremiah Robertshaw : 19 Jan 1803 : (MISC 3961) : 1 page (single sheet) : [no place] : the manuscript text, in an unidentified hand, reads in full: "The Seald of the Lord, the Elect precious / Mans redemption / to inherit the Tree of Life, to be made / heirs of God and / Joint heirs of / Jesus Christ." Below the text is the date, possibly in Southcott's hand, and her signature. Jeremiah Robertshaw's signature is on the verso, with a large oval drawn around it; his name is also written on the address panel above the text. The document bears two red wax seals: Southcott's (with two stars and "I C") and one featuring a lion rampant (possibly Robertshaw's).
