John Williams ledger, 1770-1803.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/26064031

The collection is a ledger, 258 pages, of John Williams, restored and bound in red leather in about 1930. Entries cover the period from 1770 to 1803 and include accounts, court attendances and fees, and Williams's salary as a delegate to the Continental Congress (page 144). Also included are records of the settlement of the estate of Williams's cousin and partner, Richard Henderson. There appear to be no entries for the period when Williams was in Boonesboro as agent for the Transylvania Company.
