Scope and Content

From the Collection: The collection contains approximately 275 bond certificates in denominations of one hundred, five hundred and one thousand dollars. Each certificate is uniquely numbered and signed by company secretary J.W. Martin, president J.S. Fowler, and trustee, W.R. Seward. Most of the certificates retain the coupons for interest payments, suggesting that the bonds were never sold. There are also a few empty envelopes in the collection, and the names and notes on the envelopes indicate that they were used to send money or share certificates between creditors and the company.
