Scope and Content

A ledger book on trolley ticket sales from September 1913 to June 1914. The first few pages list the trolley lines: Mystic East, Mystic West, Old Mystic East, Old Mystic West, Pawcatuck, Lower Pawcatuck, Wequetequock, Noank, Road District, Voluntown, Quaimbaug, Ledyard, Grades, and Boro. The following pages are a listing of the individuals who bought tickets for each of the given routes. At the rear is a ledger documenting how many tickets of which kind were bought and/or given on a certain day. It appears many people on these trolleys were school children or school employees in the days before public school buses.
