Scope and Content Note

This volume details the financial status of each of the New York Military Agency's field offices, mainly for the year 1865 (only three entries are for 1867). The ledger also records accounts with individuals with whom the agency had business relationships.

Usually, specifics of a transaction are not provided. Rather, general notations such as "expenses," "expenditures," "services," "check" or "voucher" are used when recording debits or credits. The location of earlier and later ledgers is not known.
