Nassau Hall Bible Society Records, 1813-1877.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/74213866

These materials record the Nassau Hall Bible Society's work during both phases of its existence. Bound volumes contain minutes of the Society's annual meetings--including reports from its managers (during the early years)--and of its board (1864-1866). Several pamphlets recount the semi-annual meeting of the Society; others give the reports of the Nassau Hall Bible, Tract, and Education Societies. The remainder consists of ledgers, donation records, and receipts from the Society's earliest years. A few historical notes conclude the collection.
