David thanks Lowrie for the letter and the enclosed fifty dollars. "I took it to the Easton Bank to Col. McKeen (treasurer of the board of trustees), but he was absent; So I got the money from Mr. James Wilson. We paid Mr. Lerch, what was due to him..."

David and Washington used the remaining money and bought a pair of shoes, a Sunday hat, and a pair of pantaloons.
