The weather finally prettied up a bit, so I was able to haul in another box of goodies from our storage building. What a treat to find these old receipts from the early 1900's. I like the one from the telephone company the most.

| A 1910 telephone receipt - can you imagine? |

Shrout, Piper & Shrout burial receipt.
I can't make out the last number in the year, but it's from the 1910's. |
 |
Owingsville Cemetery receipt. I like how they used the words "Cemetery Sexton."
I don't know if that is still used or not but I don't think I've ever heard it around here. |

| A receipt from the coal yard in Owingsville. The Dawson family owned the coal yard which was located about where the health department is now. You can see its location on the old maps of Owingsville that I've linked to here on the blog. |

| Kimbraugh & Son receipt from 1911, I'm assuming from their drug store. |
