Description: This is an old receipt, dated February 28, 1895. The document is partly printed and partly handwritten, and is a receipt for payment from a man named Michael Reinig to Charles E. Heisey (1863-1939), who was a grocery store owner in Great Falls, Montana. Charles E. Heisey signed this receipt twice. Charles E. Heisey stipulated in his will the creation of the Heisey Foundation. The Trustees of the Heisey Foundation have established a series of scholarships to be given annually to students from Montana who are attending college within a specific demographic region. The first scholarships that I have found that were issued by the Heisey Foundation were given out in 1944. In that year, 75 grants of $50 each were issued by the foundation. The Heisey Foundationis still in existence, and appears to be giving away more money to Montana students than ever before. Michael Reinig (1835-1909) was born in Bavaria,but immigrated to the United States while young.He moved to the Helena area in 1863, and opened up a bakery that became a type of grocery store,which he operated until his death. In this case, Michael Reinig was the customer, not the seller, as he paid Charles Heisey $13.10. The payment was actually made on March 5, 1895,according to the notation on the back of the receipt. The document is about 9" by 5", and is in good condition, with some creases where it has been folded, a short tearon the right side, and some general wear.
