A propos de cet article

WILLIAM ELLERY (1727-1820). William Ellery was a Founding Father of the United States, a Declaration of Independence signer, and a representative and signer for Rhode Island in the Articles of Confederation.ADS. 2pg. c. May 1768. N.p. An autograph document signed William Ellery giving various instructions. for the most they will fetch excepting three of the best calf skins which are to be well curried on the grain side, and excepting two best sides of leather, and one side to be curried for harness & In the long parchment book you will find a settlement with Col. Nath. Peirce. In that settlement I made a mistake as you will see by the Nota bene. The ballance in fact is but $2/3$ which you may pay him if he should call for it. I leave with you Oliver Wests account. The ballance due to him is $5/10 lawful which you may pay him if he should call for it in flax or corn, or potatoes, or if he will not take either of those articles, in money. M. Reynolds is to make for Prue a strong pair of leathern heel'd shoes. If she should fall sick so as to need a physician, a physician must be applied to at my expence.

If you can get Thomas Peck, to help thresh oats, break and swingle flax, or to do any other sort, or either of his Sons will work, for him employ him or them for he owes money to Col. Careys estate. William Ellery. This letter is a list of tasks for an overseer or partner because of Ellery leaving town. As a clerk of the court, he had to attest to the colonys General Treasurer that Samuel Brown had fulfilled his civic duty by attending the Inferior Court for 19 days during the May 1768 term. This document shows that while Ellery was busy at the courthouse certifying Samuel Browns attendance for the Treasurer, he had to hastily write this letter to ensure his orchard got planted, his leather was treated, and his household was looked after while he was away. It is framed so the first page of the document can be seen through the back of the frame. This document has some see-through writing on verso and is in fine condition.…
