Measures 8.5 x 13.25". Calf binding w/leather corners and red & black lea. spine labels - "Ledger" - & raised bands, & marbled eps. Covers exhibit moderate wear & soiling & rubbing at the extremities. Some foxing of text w/some inner pages torn - contents consists of an inked index of customer names, followed by 326 numbered leaves containing the running accounts of clothing bills dating from the 1830s to the 1870s. Ledger entries overlaid with numerous poetic entries obviously written much later. These anonymous handwritten journal entries appear mainly in the latter part of the ledger.

Kennedy, Stamford, NY" w/printed return address: "If not called for in 10 days please return to Dr. D. Kennedy, Rondout, N.Y." Envelope reverse contains printed advertisement claiming that "Dr. D. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy Is the Greatest Discovery of the Age!….It never fails to cure disorders of the liver, constipation of the bowels, kidney and bladder complaints, and all the Diseass and Weaknesses peculiar to Females…" In all, a possible genealogical find for any Stamford, NY-connected Kennedys.
