Two partially printed documents filled out in ink, the first being a "License of a Vessel above 20 tons, to carry on the Coasting Trade for One Year," for the Schooner Action, issued from the port of Bridgetown, 1807, and the second a "License of a Vessel above 20 tons, to carry on the Cod-Fishery, for One Year," for the Schooner Industry, issued from the port of Portsmouth, 1807. Each approx. 17x10.

Pair of documents issued "in pursuance of an act of the Congress of the United States of America," which would only remain in effect so long as "the revenue of the United States shall not be defrauded."
