Registers and index to incoming correspondence, 1861-1862.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/79736324

This series consists of two registers of incoming correspondence and an index to the registers. Most of the correspondence was addressed to the governor. The letters were either answered by the governor or referred to other officials for response. The registers, with the running title "Diary of Letters Received at the Executive Department" at the top of the pages, provide the following for each letter received: date; from whom received; to whom addressed (usually the governor); to be answered by (e.g. governor, comptroller, initials of an individual); date answered; and phrase indicating topic of the letters, often so brief as to give little indication of the actual contents of the letter.
