This document appears to be one issued after the Act of Union of 1841 bringing Upper and Lower Canada together as one. It reflects a payment of 5 pounds to Antoine Collette probably to purchase public lands for private use. Dated December 4, 1844 at Montreal, this is still another specimen that is an important historical Canadian document.*
