re: Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) Member Richard G. Watson

As an futures ex-trader, I would suggest that represents a receipt for 8 futures contracts of wheat for May delivery at a price of 73 cents per bushel.

I first thought corn because of the Bank cancel, but the price of corn in 1902 was in the 50-55c range, whereas wheat was in the 70's cents.
