http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/78512013

Ledgers of accounts showing debits and credits for bonds and mortgages held by the Comptroller for the State of New York. Each account gives: name of mortgagor or obligor; date and amount of bond; location of mortgaged property; interest due; and payments on principal and interest by cash or other credits. Most of the accounts are for sales of land from former Indian reservations and from unappropriated lands. Unappropriated lands are all unconveyed state lands, including those belonging to the Common School Fund, escheated lands, lands conveyed to the state for benefit of the Canal Fund, or by foreclosure of mortgage to U.S. Deposit Fund or any other loan by the state.
