Eliphalet Remington Arms Signed Promissory Note and Check 1850s For Sale

Here is the last of my collection of Remington Arms documents signed by founder, Eliphalet Remington and his son, Eliphalet III. First we have a check signed by Eliphalet Remington III on April 11th, 1853, drawn on the Ilion Bank. The check was written to a C.W. Carpenter for $24.33. It is endorsed on the back by Carpenter. I have traced C.W. Carpenter back to Ilion NY. I believe he was the founder of the volunteer fire department there in 1864.
The second document is a promissory note dated March 31st, 1860 for $76.75 (or close to $2,700 in 2023 money). This was a 60 day loan payable to Eliphalet Remington. Strong Remington signature on the back of the promissory note.
I've sold a few of these over the past 15 or so years. I see some of them popping back up for resale now.
