WILLIAM ELLERY (1727-1820). William Ellery was a Founding Father of the United States, a Declaration of Independence signer, and a representative and signer for Rhode Island in the Articles of Confederation.ADS. 2pg. c. May 1768. N.p. An autograph document signed William Ellery giving various instructions. for the most they will fetch excepting three of the best calf skins which are to be well curried on the grain side, and excepting two best sides of leather, and one side to be curried for harness & In the long parchment book you will find a settlement with Col. Nath. Peirce. In that settlement I made a mistake as you will see by the Nota bene. The ballance in fact is but $2/3$ which you may pay him if he should call for it. I leave with you Oliver Wests account.
