Florida 15 March 1842
My Dr William Henry
I received yesterday from the
Journal Office a bill of thirty two Dollars
for printing – Having advanced Cash within
the date specified in said amount to the amount
of more than three hundred & fifty Dollars
I respectfully submit to you whether my
advances have not been fully proportionate
without discharging this bill and especially
as I was informed when I advansed this money
that it would go into the general fund and I
expected the papers I received were on that
account
Your dear Ma
Birth: 1769-11-27 Death: 1844-12-11
and myself are
extremely feeble, Mrs Capt Jennings
Unknown
