This is a Confederate pay sheet for money owed to Lemuel Holstead, a civilian, for three bales of cotton. The pay sheet covers 2792 pounds of cotton at 1 pound of cotton for 2 pounds of beef, for a total of $1396.00. It does state that Halstead received $1396.00 at Pitch Landing, South Carolina on 12 August, 1864. Halstead's signature is found at the bottom right corner of the form. The form itself is an actual Confederate form, not a crossed out copy of a Union form. This document is in fair condition, showing the effects of staining from water contact along the left edge. The ink is not smudged and the writing is very legible. This is a pretty rare Confederate document that has survived the last 158 years in fair condition.
