Cape Elizabeth Tax Assessment 432 Pounds
Grade: VF/XF    

---

March 10, 1777. Wax seal at left. Entirely handwritten. "Agreeable to your Warrant dated Feby 7, 1777." An interesting tax assessment signed by Ebenezer Sawyer, Patrick Maxwell, and David Strout. Also addressed to "The Honorable Henry Gardner Esq. Treasurer of the State of the Massachusetts Bay in Boston." Cape Elizabeth was originally located in Colonial Massachusetts before Maine became a state in 1820. A cool historical item.
