content: This series contains individual ledgers recording small accounts of LCNC with individuals, churches, government bodies, telephone companies, banks, railway companies, school districts, utility companies, and other entities, 1904-1944. The accounts are recorded at Lansford, perhaps the location of the general office. All ledgers have indexes in the front giving the account name and page number. Accounts are posted on the first or last day of the month. Included in the entries are account names and numbers, balances, voucher numbers, and whether accounts were paid by cash, check, or other means. Double column accounting figures balance for each monthly entry. Miscellaneous accounts are posted in the back of Volumes 3-12. Summaries of accounts for December 1919, December 1922 and December 1923, December 1924, December 1926, and December 1928 and December 1929 are found in the front of Volumes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, respectively. In the front of Volume 2, which is called a miscellaneous ledger, is a list of balances from 1908 to be carried to the next ledger and a list of ledger balances for 1905 and 1906. In the back of the same volume is miscellaneous correspondence concerning several accounts. The ledgers are arranged chronologically.
