ABILENE, Kan. — A document written by a federal judge in 1794 has caused a stir among historians, not for what it says, but for where it was discovered: in President Dwight Eisenhower's archives in the middle of Kansas.

The document, signed by Judge Richard Peters, was found by archivist Valoise Armstrong at the Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum in Abilene in July.

She was going through boxes of letters to Eisenhower that are being opened to the public. The yellowed half-sheet of parchment paper with browned ink stood out among the other bright, crisp letters sent to the White House.
