Administrative HistoryIn comments to his section XIII, "Minutes and Accounts", Bain notes: "The earliest account book began on seventh February 1800 and ended in December 1885. [This book is no longer among the Hospital's papers.] There are, however, separate accounts preserved for some years, particularly on account of Principal Chalmers' intromissions from 1st January 1760 to January 1800 [MS 3861/4/5 item 3]".
DescriptionAccounts of Bishop Dunbar's Hospital, together with vouchers, tradesmen's accounts, and general financial papers. Includes lists of the bedesmen receiving payments from Bishop Dunbar's Hospital Trust between 1914 and 1950, with some earlier lists.
ArrangementAs the earlier Hospital accounts are frequently bundled together with general financial and other documents, the papers in this section have been arranged chronologically.
