1839 Handwritten Resolution Authorizing Mayor to Borrow Mr. Stinman and Mr. Coakley
Approximately 7.5\" by 3.25\"
Original 1839 handwritten municipal resolution, dated March 18th, authorizing the Mayor to borrow up to $3,500 on the credit of the city in order to pay off outstanding loans. The document records the motion of Mr. Stinman and Mr. Coakley, noting adoption and concurrence the same day, signed by clerks W. Whiteside and M. Carpenter. A rare piece of early American city financial governance, showing how municipalities managed debt obligations in the early 19th century.
