Scope and content:

Sub-sub-series consists of numbered files containing letters received and copies of the replies (Vols. 1-362). The registry system began on 2 November 1867 and continued until the introduction of the central registry on 1 July 1903. The earliest files were numbered from one to 10,000. On 22 July 1874 the numbering began again, but with the cypher "0" preceding the number. When number 09999 was reached early in 1884, a new series of numbers was adopted, beginning with A1. In 2 October 1893 the use of the letter "A" before the number was discontinued.
