Poem in John Henry Tudor's hand(?), March 1796, with empty envelope

This poem is about winter and appears to be an assemblage of passages from several published works along with Tudor's own compositions. On the verso, Tudor wrote "Abbott 2nd. March 1796." On the empty envelope is written: "Letters from my dear deceased friend J.H.T.," along with a note in another hand reading: "no letters found enclosed." It is unclear whether or not the envelope formerly held the poem.

Collection of Harvard College bills sent to George Wingate, 1792-1796

This collection of bills, sent to George Wingate while he was an undergraduate at Harvard College from 1792 to 1796, includes quarter bills, butler's bills, and bills and receipts of payment from two women, Mary Hilliard and Mary Kidder, who provided Wingate room and board ("board and chamber"). The butlers bills were created by the two men who held that position during Wingate's time as a student, John Pipon and Timothy Alden. Caleb Gannett was the steward the entire time, and thus creator of all the quarter bills. Some of the bills indicate charges for sizings and fines for punishments, and a bill from Mary Hilliard indicates that Wingate purchased candles, blank books and sheets of paper from her.
