Famous Charlestonian Christopher Gustavus Memminger (future CSA Sec. of the Treasury) sells an “unsound” slave named William. 

                                    “Charleston, Feb. 28, 1854

                        Resd. from Mr. Michael W. Brody, Five-hundred

                        and seventy dollars in full payment for a Negro

    fellow named William, sold him at auction this

    day, as unsound.

                                    C. G. Memminger

    $570.”

The receipt is written on blue paper in nice dark ink and is perfect to be framed with a picture of the Confederate Treasurer.  Memminger had an amazing story coming to the U.S. from Germany as an infant and left at the orphan asylum in Charleston.  He was eventually adopted from Thomas Bennett, later Gov. of S. C.  Graduating from college he studied law and entered politics and served as a member of both the secession and the provisional CSA Congress in Montgomery.
