Leigh, R. H. Young, James N. Torrance, Richard Allison, 1833-1927 |
| Description | This document is a letter about the "steep" bill for a load of potatoes and pumpkins purchased around April of 1864. Mr. Young complains that his men dug and loaded the produce but he did not think he had "more than half a load" when he had been promised five bushels of potatoes and an unknown quantity of pumpkins. The vegetables came from crops on Mr. Torrance's plantation. Other parties mentioned: Mr. McDonald, manager of said plantation, R. H. Leigh of Richmond, Texas (to whom the letter is addressed) and Col. Ryan who received $50.00 in this transaction. |
