This manuscript contains innumerable city ordinances copied by Sidney Bernard Reeve for various people. A large portion of these ordinances were copied by Reeve for railroad magnate Henry Edwards Huntington. The ordinances copied for Huntington included "Sale of stock in the Los Angeles and San Pedro Railroad Company by City to Southern Pacific Railroad Company," "Depot Grounds of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, Re-located," "Workshop Grounds Southern Pacific Railroad Company, located," "Right of way for the Southern Pacific Railroad Co.," "Franchise, Spring and Sixth Street Horse Railroad," "Franchise extension of Spring and Sixth Street Railroad (Street Cars)," "Transfer of City stock of the Los Angeles and San Pedro Railroad Company to the Southern Pacific Railroad Company," among others. A few ordinances, such as an 1856 ordinance regarding the "Old Plaza, Sonora Town" in Los Angeles, were copied by Reeve for real estate agent William May Garland. Additionally, ordinances involving the "Grant of City Lands to the Pioneer Oil Company of Los Angeles" and the "Concession of Lands to Phineas Banning, Heirs, etc." were copied by Reeve for oil tycoon Edward Laurence Doheny and his business partners Charles Canfield, and Danziger.
