Bill from Dr. William Seymour to Samuel Barnes dated 1916
Bill from Dr. William Seymour to Samuel Barnes dated 1916. Note that part of the bill was paid for with 5 bushels of corn. This was not at all unusual especially in a farming community like Trappe (these were the days before medical insurance was common). Dr. Seymour lived in the big house on Main St. diagonally across the street from the Trappe High School. He practiced medicine in Trappe for 66 years, from 1895 to 1961.
