The ledgers are arranged alphabetically by names of staff, and give information regarding office held, location within the United Kingdom, annual salary, "insurance", quarterly premium payments, and remarks. Includes "superannuated" as well as active staff.

The letters give permission for the counterfeit books to be donated to the Corporation of Trinity House as additions to the libraries of lighthouse keepers and light vessel crews. There are also two notes, 1967 and 1982, by Customs and Excise staff explaining that these letters were extracted from files (presumably since destroyed) because of the authors' signatures. The authors include Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Frances Hodgson Burnett, Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch and Jack London. The letters do not include any names of lighthouse keepers or light vessel crews.
