This remarkable original manuscript pharmacy/apothecary ledger serves as an essential primary document for American medicine as it evolved following the Civil War when Opium Cocaine Morphine distilled liquor and more were part of everyday household use and in fact encouraged for health and longevity. As evidenced by the over 1400 separate prescriptions topical medicines and prescriptions to treat symptoms were the norm. Many of the popular pain relievers in tincture pure form and mixed in assorted elixirs include opium morphine Phenactine and Acetanilid. Antipyretics for fever reduction including willow bark are listed within. In addition opium seems to have also been used to counter diarrhea camphor oil is frequently listed possibly for rashes as well as an antibacterial mixed with Resorscin.

His father was Snell Babbitt a longtime prominent Berkshire Doctor and Nathan had attended the nascent Berkshire Medical School. Another doctor who features prominently for the 2 years is Orland Jonas Brown 1848-1927 Civil War veteran and surgeon with the Massachusetts Militia who had graduated from the Univ. of Vermont before extended study in New York after the War before opening his practice. He was known for progressively staying abreast of the latest developments in surgery medicine and homoeopathic medicine and maintained a wide clientele. Others listed include Dr. William E. Brown dentist on Fisherâ€™s Block Dr. Clark C. Miles Dr. Henry . Millard Secretary to the Medical Association of Northern Berkshire laid-in manuscript prescription by E.E. Potter and many others.

Founded originally by Burlginame 1800-1882 who also owned the local bank was an active member of the Baptist Church and has served in the Massachusetts legislature. Originally it operated as Burlingame & Ray but after the Civil War George M. Darby 1841-1923 druggist and merchant bought out Ray and changed the name. In addition they hired the equally young William Franklin â€œFrankâ€ Darby 1838-1921 who was a noted Civil war veteran serving in the Union Army nearly the entire War and survived 20 major battles and would become frequent state legislator from 1870-1879.
