There is an entry recorded 30 January 1845 in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger for $1.75 for two orders to John Mackley dated 5 October 1844. There is another entry recorded 20 February 1845 for $16.00 for seven orders to Mackley dated 5 October 1844. This pay order could be one of the orders mentioned in those two entries. Mackley’s account in the ledger notes nineteen orders on collector dated 5 October 1844 totaling $41.00. This and the three other extant pay orders for Mackley dated 5 October 1844 likely correspond to four of those nineteen orders.
