There are two entries recorded 13 and 20 February 1845 in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger for $1.00 for orders to Shadrach Roundy dated 24 August 1844. Only one pay order for $1.00 dated 24 August 1844 is extant. This order likely corresponds to one of those ledger entries. Roundy’s account in the ledger notes thirteen orders on collector dated 24 August 1844 totaling $24.00. This pay order for Roundy likely corresponds to one of those thirteen orders.
