Levi was the son of Josiah Bartlett, best known as a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Not easy to read but still legible, here are some excerpts: "Ord. 3. Performance of Your Duties...our duties arise from our relations 1. to the Diety, 2. Ourselves..." "Vertigo by too much nerves, Dimness of Sight want of nerve, Double Vision too much nerve, ..." "a. Our duties are 1. to assist the purposes of the Diety in evolving our and others mental powers.." Very interesting and certainly worthy of further research.
