There are no separate entries recorded in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger for any orders to Abraham C. Hodge dated 1 August 1844. Hodge’s account in the ledger notes five orders on collector dated 1 August 1844 totaling $21.00. This and the two other extant pay orders for Hodge dated 1 August 1844 likely correspond to three of those five orders. (Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger, 145; Pay Order, William Clayton to Nauvoo City Collector for Abraham C. Hodge, 1 Aug. 1844–A; Pay Order, William Clayton to Nauvoo City Collector for Abraham C.
