Receipt for Publication Costs, 8/17/1945

 Item — Box: 5, Folder: 26
Identifier: CAC_CC_041_1_5_26_0006
An apparent receipt (but resembles a check) for moneys "received from Gov. Wm H. Murray" for $5450.00 for "full payment on the Contract for publishing "THE MEMOIRS OF GOVERNOR MURRAY AND TRUE HISTORY OF OKLAHOMA."

This apparently deals with point # 5 of the contract (previous item # 0004): "It is agreed that the author shall advance to the publisher the proceeds of four hundred copies of sales of sets (offered at $15.00 each--handwritten parenthetical note)to be used in the production of said book . . .." This specified mount = $6000. (= 400 x 15). Perhaps Murray got a discount later or previously paid $550 not accounted for here.
