There is not an extant order for James Sloan for $26.50, and nothing was recorded in the Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger. There is an order to Sloan dated 30 January 1843 for 34.50 that was recorded in the ledger. Possibly the 14 Jan. 1843 order was folded into this larger order. (Pay Order to Nauvoo City Treasurer for James Sloan, 30 Jan. 1843; Nauvoo City Treasury Ledger, 52.)
