Diary, 1860 - 1870
Scope and Contents
Includes four diaries (1814-1819; 1829-1841; 1857; 1860-1870) containing weather observations, financial accounts, and scripture passages [Note: Although these volumes are called diaries, they do not contain the typical diary entries.] The commonplace book (527 pp., undated) seems to be a small concordance to Scripture, with passages copied in and cross-referenced. Also housed here is an address book, purchased and used in England (1859) and a pocket-sized pamphlet, The Names, Titles and Characters of Jesus Christ, London, undated. The diary (1857), pamphlet, and address book are included in the Index to the Finney papers. Volumes are filed chronologically.
