Payrolls, checks, and accounts of Green Peyton, and letters from student's girlfriends [manuscript], 1853-1893, 1935-1938.

Payrolls, cancelled checks and business memoranda of Green Peyton, Proctor of the University of Virginia, picked up by Atcheson Hench from a pile that bursar E. I. Carruthers had thrown out around 1930. Hench comments in a note "I was astonished that the stuff was destroyed but had no say in the matter." Among the items are a bill for pharmaceuticals at the University dispensary, 1891, and accounts of wages paid University laborers including bellringer Henry Martin, 1889, 1892. All of the laborers have signed by mark. Also two letters written by girlfriends of Virginia students, 1935 and 1938, picked up in the library and on the Lawn by the same scavenging Atcheson Hench.

50ca. items.
