Manuscripts
The thirty-seven journal volumes are arranged chronologically in three boxes: Box 1 Volumes 1-12 (1752-1789, Aug.) ; Box 2 Volumes 13-25 (Aug. 1789-1806) ; Box 3 Volumes 26-37 (1806-1828). The journals comprise thirty-seven volumes in white vellum covers, all in good condition. After 1778, at the end of each year, many of the volumes include lists of musical compositions and publications, major events, journeys, marriages, births and deaths. The majority of the volumes were written by John Marsh except the very end of volume 37 which was finished by his son Edward Garrard Marsh; also, the volumes contain the pencil edit markings and notes made by E.G. Marsh for his heavily edited early edition of the journals.

"This is a book of alternatives. Alternatives to the ever-increasing, maddening circle of closed-system consumption as practiced by a majority of American corporations. The listings here are not advertising. They are recommendations for groups we believe to be more interested in helping people, or performing an honest service, than in making money"--From page [3].

Hall made a mistake here; this is the west end of the Third Street tunnel. The white structure above with two bay windows is 632 West Third. Below is the Crown Hotel at 702 West Third, the Havlin Hotel at 706 (with "Café Bobs"), and the moving/storage company was at 710 West Third. At left, Cinnabar Street runs from Third, between Hope and Flower, north to Second Street.
