Monthly superintendent's reports for the Louisville Baptist Orphans' Home, 1908-1923. The superintendent's report for January 1918 mentions food rationing for the war effort. Four children of the Costigan family were placed in the home when their aunt died and their father was unable to care for them due to military service in the Navy (Oct. 1918, July-Sept. 1919).
