New Orleans, Louisiana, 1851. Public Instrument of Protest signed and notarized by Notary Public, Theodore Guyol, with red handstamp at bottom left. Also includes a related handwritten First Exchange bill, attached to the interior of the document. The New Orleans Canal and Banking Company issued a draft to Jacob Wood and John L. Benner for the sum of $200, and upon requesting the owed payment "was answered that no funds had been deposited there to pay the same." The document goes on to say that the drawers, Wood and Benner, "deposited in the Post Office in this City on the same day of the said Protest." Fine condition with toning and holes at center fold lines. Interesting financial document which pre-dates the Civil War.
