Notes
Folded letter from Philadelphia Pa to Boston Ma. sent March 28, 18xx. The 5 cent stamp underpaid the over 300 mile rate. From Boston, the letter was forwarded back to Philadelphia on April 28th. The carrier stamp, being applied over the 5c US stamp paid for delivery in Philadelphia after returning from Boston.
The red crayon manuscript ˜5' and ˜26' are possibly charging the 5 cents due for the underpayment on the letter to Boston to the senders account number 26. The ˜5 due' for forwarding is an underpayment that appears to have been accepted.
