Receipt Books, 1775-1776, undated

About This Collection

Images of a record of the receipts of the Committee of Safety. Entries are neatly written in two ledger books with the date of receipt written at the top right hand corner of the page. Each entry states the name of the payee, amount paid, the reason the money was owed and a second signature (seemingly the person who collected the amount.) The amounts are also recorded and totaled together at the bottom of the page.
