1866 This lot consists of two handwritten ledgers from the Umatilla Stage Lines of Boise, Idaho. Hailey Stage Line - Umatilla Stage Line In 1865, Hailey bought out partner William Ish to become sole owner of Umatilla to Boise Basin Line. In 1866 purchased Walla Walla and Boise Stage Company. At the same time, took over the U. S. mail subcontract. These ledgers list all the comings and goings and the shipments handled by the company for the years 1866 and 1869. One of the ledgers is missing its front cover and has some bindery issues, the other has both covers but could use some restoration work. The entries in both are clear, appearing as if they were written yesterday. This is a great lot with a nice look at a part of every day workings of an express company.
