Noted that Henry Knox paid Thomas Bumstead in full for work on his chaise. Total cost was £22.12.2. Payments were for chains, springs, rivets, seats, lace, buckles, a head rail, and labor for repairs. The work was done March-September 1777, but it seems that Bumstead signed the document on 16 July 1778.
