Small cloth bound book with "Account" written across the front. Emblem of United States Navy stamped onto cover. Most likely kept by Eugene Marshall Woods (1874-1960). This account book records expenses from 1921 to 1924 as kept by Mr. Woods beginning in December 1921. It includes items like his children's haircuts, how much he gave his wife, food, fixing up items around the dairy, dues paid, doctors visits, etc.
There is a section of blank pages after the expenses of 1924, and then a sort of diary beginning in October 1924. Eugene made daily brief notes about the weather and things he did on the farm, and/or who visited each day. The daily diary goes through the end of December, 1924.Collection
