on Indian concerns present Evan Thomas

Elisha
Tyson
Gerard T. Hopkins & Philip E. Thomas
and The Treasurer, who informed that a draft was pres
ented to him drawn by William Wells on the
funds of the committee for advances

have received from Wells he waited the instruct

authorised to pay the draft

country and directed the treasurer to pay the
draft and charge the amount which appears
overdrawn to the debit of Mahlon Kirk
then adjourned
