Pickett Cotton Mill records, 1899-1933 [manuscript].

Records documenting the day-to-day activities of the business offices of the mill. Both expenses (for supplies, wages, machinery, insurance, etc.) and products are detailed in the company's routine correspondence, contracts, account ledgers, invoices, and other office files. A few volumes appear that predate the establishment of Pickett Cotton Mill; these probably relate to an earlier business of Pickett's, possibly involving tobacco.
