The date "1814" is handwritten to the left. A column on the right contains numbers: "$ 39", "44.46", "77.92", "40.00" and "40.11". A column on the left contains mostly illegible cursive text with "By Cash" written multiple times. The background is white with scattered darker spots. A thin black border surrounds the image.
