General

Donor's description: "a notebook that was at one time owned by George K. Parsell. The first few pages of the notebook were used as a ledger for the firm of De Hart & Parsell, Architects. These pages are dated 1874-1878. Other pages in the book appear (to me, at least) to be formulas for fireworks/pyrotechnics." Firm name and dates not verified; contents of volume's notebook portion possibly those of a student.
