There is an entry recorded 19 February 1845 in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger for $5.00 for an order to Abraham Palmer dated 4 October 1844. This pay order likely corresponds to that entry. Palmer’s account in the ledger notes six orders on collector dated 4 October 1844 totaling $41.00. This and the three other extant pay orders for Stout dated 4 October 1844 likely correspond to four of those six orders.
