Abstract
The Minehill and Schuylkill Haven Railroad Company (MSH) was one of the first commercial carrier railroads chartered in the U.S. The stock traded on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and the company managers faithfully issued annual reports to the stockholders beginning in 1828. Fifteen annual reports were discovered at the Library Company of Philadelphia, covering most years from 1844-1864. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a content analysis of these annual reports.
