This manuscript was prepared for the National Society United States Daughters of 1812 by LTC Linda L. Green, Librarian National. The manuscript is identical to the original publication except that the original publication used fold-out pages which made the book larger in thickness but fewer in pages with smaller print. As the original was published in 1820, some of the pages had become much worn or were torn/split at the fold. This was unfortunate because the splits were in the dollars/cents column. There are notes as to how this was handled on those pages affected. The pages were near the end of the original publication.
