Scope and content
Journals of the ‘State of Affairs and Accounts’ of Henry Harnett of Calcutta, a Company servant, continued presumably by his executors after his death in 1727. The journals contain details of his personal accounts, his respondentia loans secured on ships’ cargoes and his interests (described as ‘adventures’) in internal trade. The journals cover the years from 1727 to 1729, but the earliest transactions date back to 1725.
