Incomplete day book. – 23 October 1838 – 15 May 1840. – 1 volume of textual records ; 39.5 x 15.5 x 1 cm of textual records
Note: Provenance of this item is unlikely to be with J.A. Doon because of the age of the item. It references Dr. Frye who lived in St. Andrews in the time indicated. So this ledger relates to a business in the town likely. It does appear to be a grocery / butchery business. The back cover appears to have the name “Joseph O” in pencil which might offer some clue to its provenance.
