A list of the charitable contributions made by Peter E. Vose of Dennysville, Maine.Context
Peter E. Vose writes at the beginning of his list: Having come to the belief that God requires me and that it is my duty to give one tenth part of all my income for His glory & the good of my fellow men, both temporally and spiritually, I have given during the year past for the purposes above mentioned, the sum of $150.00, which will about (according to my estimates), make up what is deficient of one tenth part of my earnings up to this date.Collection
