There is an entry recorded 19 February 1845 in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger for $2.00 to John Mackley dated 5 October 1844. This pay order likely corresponds to that entry. 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.
