Ledger and exercise books, 1858-1870.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/38754404

Collection consists of three volumes. A ledger has entries transfered from a daybook but the accounts still contain considerable detail, goods purchased, prices, and more. Customers paid their bills with cash, goods, and services. The other two volumes were used in the study of bookkeeping. One has the notation, "Book Keeping and Penmanship by Charles White, Middletown, Md., February Seventeenth, 1858." Both books show a variety of account book forms. It is possible that the books were used by more than one student, especially George C. White and Charles Edwin C. White both of whose names appear. Sections include Daybook Double Entry; Journal; Mechanic's Form; and Index to the Ledger. Penmanship practice is evident on some pages.
