List of debtors and accounts, 26 January 1791
Item
1 sheet
Unsigned document with "Sundries dr. [debtors] to stock" and a list of names of debtors and amounts owed, and an account for several transactions on the verso. This account includes the purchase and sale of an unnamed enslaved Black woman. Though it is unclear whose account this is, the writer of the document was presumably James Morrison. He chose to include this woman in a list of household goods charged to the account, noting that she was sold to Captain Anderson. The rest of the accounts are dated 10 September 1789 and 4 January 1791, and include a table, kettle, some silver spoons, and a horse.
