Notes:
Holograph.
On the fragment of a letter, is the note: "Send these back by the next chaise $2 lacking 6 cts is enclosed." The author is unknown. This manuscript was also used as a piece of scrap paper to test pens. Several names are written on the first page.
There is also an unrelated small envelope addressed to "Miss Weston, County Street" and a calling card from "Mr. & Mrs. F.M. Wild." Since the dimensions of the calling card are just slightly smaller than the envelope, it was presumably enclosed within the envelope. The calling card is dirty, creased, and in poor condition.
