I just was going through the collection and clicking randomly and found
that Item 152, which is supposed to be a letter from Richard Henry Lee,
April 15, 1777, is, instead, the deposition of Samuel Wilson of the same
date. I scrolled down through the deposition and saw nothing from Richard
Henry Lee.
I hope this is just an instance of incorrect linking.
