Each entry lists the service description on the left, followed by the name of the individual (e.g., Andrew, John Newton) and the corresponding price, often noted in pounds and shillings. The total amount due is calculated at the bottom as £24.38, with a recorded payment of £1 leaving a balance. The document concludes with a signature by Tho. B. Cameron, affirming receipt or payment.
