A 5¢ cover and a 10¢ cover both from Beloit, two covers that "just belong together." The 5¢ cover inquires, "Shall I send the 51¢ interest in Post Office stamps?"
A single phrase in another letter deserves passing mention. Writing from Beloit in November 1849, C. C. Hillman inquires of Joseph Hillman in Troy, N.Y., "Shall I send the 51¢ interest in Post Office stamps?"
A fit mate to that Beloit cover with its two five-cent singles is a Beloit cover with ten-cent stamp dated nearly six months later. The cover is unusual in that it is addressed to Ohio, whereas most other ten-cent covers went either to New England or New York.
