Account book dates from the early years of Davenport's legal career. Among his clients were Timothy Dwight IV (1752-1817), then a distinguished minister and schoolmaster in Fairfield, later president of Yale, and Joel Barlow (1754-1817), the notable poet, diplomat, and politician, then living in Hartford. Other clients belonged to such prominent Connecticut families as the Beaches, Merritts, Seymours, and Whitneys. Perhaps the most intriguing client (?) was "Tom [,] Negro of A.W. [or A.T.] Watson," who engaged Davenport's services in 1791 and paid the balance in his labor. (Slavery was abolished in Connecticut in 1848.) It is also possible that he was loaned to Davenport to pay a debt. However, Tom is listed in the index, which is a list of clients.

Series of 10 numbered postcards, with narrative captions; French child as advocate, poking fun at the legal profession. "This series illustrates an old children's folksong about a lawyer, some hints of gluttony and hostility, but not unlike cautionary children's songs in English, to influence their behavior through bad examples. Except that the bad example here is the act of a lawyer, so not totally innocent or innocuous! It's the kind of children's songs that would be accompanied by gestures."--Donor's description
