Also includes small catalog for drilling equipment (ca. 1914-1924), deed to land in Pleasants County, West Virginia (1915), and road map for southeastern United States, including West Virginia (1923). Receipts are from vendors located in the towns of Charleston and Parkersburg, West Virginia, for drilling equipment, feed and produce, hardware, and stationary. There are also three postcards (ca. 1907-1908), one addressed to Nancy Leonard of Parkersburg, with photo illustrations of Harpers Ferry (Baltimore and Ohio [B&amp;O] Railroad depot and scenic view) and Kimball, West Virginia (scenic view).</abstract>
