The specific themes dealt with here are pocket watches concerning George Washington as for digital documents, and military scrips issued for the Quartermaster Department of revolutionary Connecticut with the cooperation of the Treasury and the Pay-Table Office (Committee of Four) of the state as for unpublished manuscripts. The chapter 1 of this paper on the former theme is a sequel to the chapter 1 of my article published on this journal last year ("Digital Historical Documents and Unpublished Manuscripts on 18th Century America (I)") and further development of the theme by using the full-text searching function equipped in the digitized Writings of George Washington form the Original Manuscript Sources with other important historical documents including the Papers of George Washington, the Diary and Letters of Gouverneur Morris, etc. The chapter 2 of this paper on the latter theme analyzes newly found 24 military scrips privately owed by the author of this paper. After surveying the composition of the text and describing the configuration of the "texture" (physical characteristics) of the scrips, I present several persuasive hypotheses concerning the classifying method and generating process of the scrips. Several facts found or reaffirmed include: private and political aspects of the relationship between George Washington and Gouverneur Morris; complicated process of ordering, payment and transportation of the watch made for Washington at Jean-Antoine Lépine's atelier; historical significance, from horological and business viewpoints, of Lépine's watches equipped with innovative mechanisms such as a Lépine caliber. a virgule escapement, etc.; possibility of Morris's intentional or accidental misspelling of Lépine's successor "Raguet" as "Rogue" in his letter addressed to Washington; through systematic analyses of the text and the texture of the military scrips, the process of signing by the Committee of Four on the recto of the scrips; a hypothesis concerning the endorsing system of numbering and signing on their verso; a hypothetical method of classifying the scrips into several types; a persuasive mechanism of generating the scrips, etc., 図1-2およびp.58-59は都合により掲載しておりません}, pages = {15--60}, title = {18世紀アメリカに関するデジタル史料と未刊行手稿史料 (2) : ワシントン・モリス・軍票}, volume = {59}, year = {2013} }
