Revolutionary War-dated partly-printed DS, one page, 6.5 x 8.25, January 16, 1781. Governor Hancock issues a pay order for “Francis Greene a private in Colo. Nixon’s Regt the sum of Ten hundred fifty six pounds five shillings to make good the Depreciation of his wages to the 31st Decr 1779 inclusive agreeable to the annexed certificate for which this shall be your warrant.” A true copy of a pay order for Greene issued by three committee members. In very good condition, with a central vertical fold, scattered creases with a few slight edge tears, light toning, and a small stain at top from adhesive on reverse. The 6th Massachusetts saw action at Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill under the command of John and Thomas Nixon. Hancock is always desirable in any form, particularly with the Revolutionary War date.
