Manuscript DS, signed “Willm Henry Harrison,” one page, 9.75 x 15.5, December 17, 1811. Headed “An Act Representing the General Funds,” the document reads: “Whereas by a joint resolution passed at the first session of the third General assembly of this Territory entitled a resolution for ascertaining and collecting the…Territorial Tax. The auditor of public accounts was therein directed to raise and open certain accounts and also to procure from the general clerk of the courts of common pleases abstracts of lands taxed for Territorial purposes and for defraying the expense thereof. There was appropriated the sum of one hundred and fifty dollars and whereas the said auditor hath reported to this General Assembly that the aforesaid one hundred and fifty dollars has remained untouched. Therefore be it enacted by Legislature council and house of Representatives and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same that the said appropriation of one hundred and fifty dollars be and the same is hereby transferred to the general fund of said Territory and to become part of the same as effectually as though the said resolution had never been passed.” Signed at the conclusion by Harrison, as well as by the Speaker of the House of Representatives and President of the Legislative Council. In very good condition, with a complete central horizontal separation (which could easily be repaired), intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, and uniform toning, heavier at edges from previous display. Following his victory at Tippecanoe, Harrison was given command of the Army of the Northwest in the fall of 1812 and resigned as governor a few months later.
