The ledger was in the custody of the Quesnel Court Registry before transferral to the Archives.
Scope and content
The series consists of one ledger that includes both advance and refund information as well as balances from the Barkerville Small Debts Court. The first ten pages of the ledger appear to have been used by the Government Agent in Barkerville, and provide information on cash advances and refunds from 1941 to 1948. Many of the advances were made to police constables, and included in the ledger are several “Authority for Cash Advance” forms addressed to the Government Agent at Barkerville and signed by Sergeant T. R. Baker, who may have been provincial police sergeant Thomas Raymond Baker.
The second half of the ledger includes a list of receipts and disbursements for the Small Debts Court, presumed to be at Barkerville.
