This land grant is for an 80-acre tract of public land in Brookeville, Indiana sold to Joseph P. Plummer. Notably, the document was signed by President James Monroe and John McLean, who was then the Commissioner of the General Land Office, a position he held for nine months before his appointment as the United States Postmaster General. President Andrew Jackson later nominated McLean to the Supreme Court in 1829, and he remained on the Court until his death in 1861.
