A letter between Elizabeth and her brother Philip concerning inheritance from her father. In particular furniture that was purchased as well as an amount of money that was given to her in the past. "a report has prevailed that my father gave me six thousand Dollars before I left him. Let me assure you it is an un truth, it has given me some pain that I should have been heald up to the publick in so unfavourable a point of view as on the one hand to request you to make provision for me by some Arrangement, and on the other (as is is said) to be so amply provided by my father."
