Format is like volumes RET 3/10/1/1-5, but entries are untidy and information scrappy. Not indexed This is a re-used volume. The volume is marked 'Patients' Accounts' on the front, and has previously been used for quarterly totals of patients' board 1829-1842, with patients listed alphabetically from 1 April to 31 March each year, with quarterly totals, and folio reference number of entry in Patients' Ledger. Totals for Board were added at end of the financial year, with a total deducted for patients' work. Entries are rather like those in Journal RET 3/2/5/3, which covers 1823-1840, so perhaps this volume was intended as a fair copy of RET 3/2/5/3. These pages had been strung together so that the volume could be re-used later as a Patients' Disbursements Book
