Sobre este artículo
Lyons, IL: Author. Good. 1892. Softcover. This handwritten ledger was kept by Henry Neher who ran Frog Pond Farm in Lyons, Cook County, Illinois for James Farnsworth (of Chicago?). Entries are in pencil and are quite legible. Neher was born in Illinois to German immigrant parents. He seems to have lived in Lyons for most of his life. There are references to James Farnsworth, owner of Frog Pond Farm in the account book, and a note that Farnsworth seems to have "settled" the accounts with Neher every month, and one note says: "in city 93 Dearborn St."--this is presumably, Chicago. Also recorded are a number of 25 cent railway fares recorded by Neher, presumably to Chicago. Neher documents the expenses of the farm in (wagon grease, cows coming in, ice, etc) and also provides information on hired hands with the amounts they are due, expenses they incurred while working, dates, etc. This is a small ledger, measuring about 4" x 7". A few pages were torn out (about 8 leaves), and some pages are also torn. There is writing on nearly every page. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 54 pages .
