John Zimmerman supplied 16 1/2 Bus corn at .37 1/2 per bushel; this came under Team Charges.
George Reed received money for something.
Bottom 3rd of Page 3, 17 April, under "Sundries"
Mich Roland, pd him, $100.00, Cash
Jon Meas, pd him, $7.00, Cash
Eleandria Crawford, pd him, $2.75, Cash
Sam Trump, pd him, $20.00, Cash
Some interesting names above, notice the last name, we now have a Mr. Trump on on our surname list, I can't find anything to say what the last four were paid for, we probably need some sort of an Investigation Committee to sort this out. Also the spelling on three of the above is questionable; I put down "Roland", maybe it's "Noland", then there is the first name of Crawford, who knows what that might be. Then there is "Jon Meas", I checked the 1830, Pine Grove Township Federal Census, there is a John Mease and Johathan Mease on Page 103; "Meas" turns up many times in the ledger' I think the proper spelling is "Mease".
