Scope and Content

Information found in each entry includes customer name, date and type of transaction, and amounts debited or credited to the customer's account. All purchase are listed as "merchandise" so it is unclear what type of business Clarkson Anderson and Company operated. Also, the front cover and first sixty pages are missing from the ledger. Notations also refer to other unidentified ledgers.
