"Depot private ledger 1", Sep 1907-Sep 1911

Ledger containing figures for debits and credits to various accounts within the company.

The term 'depot' used in the title of this volume appears to refer to the Blackfriars head office and its departments as a whole and so the ledger includes accounts relating to the Blackfriars depot, the bacon department, the factory, the works department, and other financial accounts managed at a head office level (rather than by branches).

After September 1911, the depot private ledgers were split into two series - A and B (later a C series was added).

Indexed.
