Wow if you like old west history your in luck this week! Could be anything and everything in It dates from 1883-1885.Has 513 unresearched pages in it! Are you familiar with the "Union Hotel" in this part of the country? If so I would love to hear from you on it! Thank you for your time to review this awesome ledger.I will tell you what we know about it.It is hardbound measures approximately 6-1/4 x 15-1/4 in.,it is in good condition.Has bumps,srapes,scatches,tears,rips,stains,and chips in the cover.The pages inside are very legible,stains,tears to some pages,Their are notes in pencil and ink as to what was happening in the hotel back in the heyday! The pages have good tightness,but are pulling away from the binding.A very small sampling of the contents are what I have shown and mulitudes of names of people that lived back in the day! Would estimate that their are 1000's of names and businesses that dealth with this hotel for one reason or another.Appears to be an account with the people listed.Or people that stayed their or both? Anyway it is quite a research project.Located in the town of Oroville.This came from an old place in California that is 80 miles from Marysville,and Sutter(yep,w gold was found in the few years prior to this document.I am quite sure that many a miner stayed at this historical Hotel named"UNION HOTEL".Very
