Alexander Garrett to Arthur S. Brockenbrough

Dr Sir

On examining the drafts I find the following to be correct Viz

1821.  July 6. Alex Sprinks $72..00  instead of  $72.. 30 as you have
June 10. negro Jack 1..00  instead of  1.. 50 ditto
I have drafts for all the items in my account from March 1821 to this date except the following Viz.
1821 Apl 20.

To Bernard Peyton for his account

$97.. 59.
Nov. 20.

To Hugh Chisholmn omitted the 1st April 1818 the same being charged to him on acct work

} 25.. 00

To Jesse W Garth omitted April 1818 the same being discounted out of his subscription for land purchased of him by the Central College

} 187.. 50
23

To Bursar his salary of one [per]. cent on $41405..12½ disbursed

414.. 0[. . .]
To balance these debits I have credited the University by Chisholmn [. . .] 1st instalment his subscription $25 and by Jesse W Garth in p[lace of his?] [. . .] subscription for Land purchased of him $187..50.

In my account up to March 1821. the following debit[s] [. . .] entered without Drafts Viz.

1820 Oct. 1.

To this sum erroniously credited the 2d Feby 1820 as recd of J Pleasants jr [per] Bank Va the same being before credited towit 30th Sep. 1819

} 25.. 00
1820 Nov. 18.

750.. 00
1821 Mar 31.

To Bursar his salary of one [per]. cent on 26988..96 disbursed

I suppose you have my accounts in the printed sheets previous to the acct of March 1821 & from them you can select such items as I have no draft of yours to support.Should you want my book which is now compleat you can have it by sending down for it.
