Scope and Content

92 p. ; 13 1/2"w x 8 3/16"h The St. Mary's Beacon was a Leonardtown newspaper owned by the King family. This ledger lists many of the individuals, government agencies, and companies that advertised in the paper. Not all of the companies were in St. Mary's County; firms in Baltimore and Washington advertised in the county, as well. Pages 200-222 are the records of the paper's subscription agent and are a treasure trove of local names. Unfortunately, this ledger is in deplorable condition. The covers are gone, only two of the index pages remain and there are gaps in the numbering of the entry pages. Most of the ink remains strong and legibility is limited only by the handwriting in the entries. There is a separate small sheet of notes about county politics. It is described at the end of the ledger entry. p. 117 index tab J no entries p. 118 index tab [K] 12 entries p. 135 index tab [V] 4 entries p. 136 index tab [W] 23 entries, but most names are torn away LOST PAGES p. 167 1881-1887 Honorable Frederick Stone Honorable John Z.
