This series contains bills of lading and clearances for cargoes. Information includes boat name; shipment date; name of consignee for each shipment of goods; description and value of articles; where shipped from and to; weight; miles traveled; and tolls charged for each group of articles shipped. Since private forms were often used there is a wide variety of billheads.
