Some names include Richard Woodberry Ezra Edwards Joseph Hillham Joseph Jewett Foster among others. The first half of the ledger bears these entries with the second half having blank pages and pages filled with what appears practice penmanship and basic math problems etc. Several pages in the rear are cut in half perhaps to serve some function to the ledger itself although this is not certain.
