Credit Side Annotation

Line 7 - Two days before GW sent this payment of $20 to his niece, Harriot Washington, the latter had written GW to advise him that she needed a pair of stays, a hat, and "a few other articles". Harriot may have therefore spent the money on those items. See Harriot Washington to GW, 24 April 1795 [Rotunda | Founders Online | Print (Presidential Series, Volume 18, pages 83-84)].
