A fragment from Augusta notes upcoming council action on defective weights and measures, vaccination instrument care, and a blood heat precaution. It records marriages of V L A Byteers and Miss Gwitea Smith, Miss Hazier Haxoray of Louisville, and obituary notices of Mrs Axw Rosinson, along with local price listings for corn meal and other goods.
The document presents Jonathan Armstrong’s sworn statements accusing Harrison and Hamilton’s Broad Street store of deception. Armstrong sought goods and credit, but words suggestive of manipulation implied the store’s officials used false pretenses to gain wealth from neighbors. The deposition, sworn May 28, 1807, was taken by George Smith Houston J.P. in Augusta Georgia.
