Title

Engineer and Surveyor's Department: Copies of accounts

Description

Volumes recording expenditure by the Department on goods and services, arranged by the name of the supplier, with totals given under expenditure heads. The volumes have been compiled chronologically, with a few pages assigned to each account-holder; they continue until September 1937, which presumably marked the start of a new system of recording. Many accounts are recorded in one volume after another as their allotted space is filled but cross-references are usually quoted. Each book is indexed and DB/D/58/28 is an index to all accounts. The opening date only is given for each volume
