W. A. Woodward accounts
Entries in the first volume largely concern his duties at Cascadilla Place, which had lecture roooms and laboratories and was also a boarding house for students and faculty and President White. Woodward's worries ranged from bad drains to unpaid tuition, homesick students, and Goldwin Smith's need for a stenographer. The second volume is the "superintendant's cash account book."
