Western and Atlantic Railroad - Treasurer - Subsidiary Cash Receipt Journals
Scope and Contents
This series consists of bound subsidiary cash receipt journals which supplemented the recording of receipts in the Treasurer's Cash Journals. No credits or funds disbursed are included. The books are formatted to include: date, "to cash received" from a source, passage, freight or mail, agents, miscellany, railroad expenses, construction costs, charge accounts, and total. The journals were used only during the period of State operation. At the back of the 1863-65 volume is a packet containing a loose, annual expense statement with 18 accounts for the fiscal year September 20, 1863 - September, 1864. The 1865-68 volume includes four months of trial balances from another source. The last volume, 1870-73, covers part of the lease period when the State had possession of these books. This volume also ties into the gap created in the shelf inventory of Series 14, Bound Cash Journals of the Treasurer's Office, of this sub-group.
