This cover is probably Alexander listed as 1/xx/xx (only cover he listed from Boston to Homer, NY) but since (1) the cover is dated Mar 7, 18xx and (2) it is unlikely he would not have seen the addressee name in a photo (unless the date was given in the text of an auction listing), I will treat this as an unlisted cover. Alexander does not list an addressee in his listing of cover ID 3991.
