| Description | The front pages of this diary are marked with the name 'E. M. Cadbury' (Elizabeth Mary Cadbury) and feature information relating to the diary which is a 'T.J. & J. Smith's Pocket Diary and Almanack'. The first five pages of the diary feature an almanack followed by twenty four pages of information. These pages include the dates of religious feasts, eclipses, university terms, bank holidays and information relating to London cab fares, directions for making a will, postal information and English weights and measures.
The diary includes daily entries written by Elizabeth Taylor Cadbury in ink or pencil. In some cases entries continue on to the blank pages featured alongside the dated boxes for each day of the year. A number of entries later in the diary are written in pencil and the length and detail of entries varies considerably. The last pages of the diary which include space for writing memoranda, Lessons for Sundays and Holydays during 1895 as well as pages for monthly cash accounts have been left blank. |
