Scope and content
File consists of the pocket diary of Talmon Henry Rieder for the year 1901. Kept predominantly in ink, the entries frequently includes brief comments about the weather and his mood, and often includes cash account notes at the end of diary pages. No entries were logged between January 10, 1901 and April 6, 1901.
The identification page near the front of the diary partially filled out by Rieder indicates he was 24 years, with a dark complexion and weighed 134 pounds. Also included are entries regarding the sizes of his shoes, collar, cuffs, hat, shirt, gloves and underwear.
Topics of note are his burgeoning relationship with Martha Anthes, frustrations with Albert Liborius Breithaupt, business dealings with a variety of contacts including the Kaufmans, and his activities with the church-based Young People's Alliance.
