Toll collectors' annual accounts, 1853, 1878-1879.

ArchivalResource

Toll collectors' annual accounts, 1853, 1878-1879.

Annual accounts of toll collectors encompass two documents. The first is a monthly summary of debits for refunded tolls, salary of collector and pay of clerk, and deposits of tolls in designated banks; and of credits for tolls collected, clearances issued, and penalties levied. The second document gives summary totals under each debit and credit column for the Erie and various branch canals. Each document includes a sworn affidavit of the collector. Year and location of toll collector's office appear on the verso. This series is fragmentary; only accounts for 1853, 1878-79 are found, and not all toll collections are represented. A few other toll collectors' accounts, prior to 1825, are found in Series A1125, Canal Commissioners Contracts and accounts for construction and repair.
