This small collection contains 9 items on 22 pages, and includes correspondence, four drafts of petitions for amendments to the U.S. Constitution and drawings and notes, most along the theme of perpetual motion, with illustrations. One drawing is titled "Perhaps a perpetual motion" and its long description begins "Invented to a state of probability on the evening of the 2nd of March 1812, after going to bed, and after going on the same evening after some milk and butter to Mr. William Martindale and coming home without obtaining any of either." Also included is a one-page attendance log from his school.
