There are three pages in front and back with tipped-in newspaper articles. John E. Small (1854-?) was a longtime resident of Fort Wayne. He married Clara Lipes in 1879. They had three daughters, Bessie, Lida (or, Elida), and Innes. They lived on Fulton Street in Fort Wayne at the time this copybook was kept.

Some of the songs were likely from vaudeville performances, and many of the poems are by James Whitcomb Riley. Among the other artists whose work has been copied herein are B. P. Shillaber, Sara Keables Hunt, Jules Benedier, W. R. Williams, Frank Castles, and Harry S. Miller. There are also some copied extracts from the magazines, the Ideal Orator and the Social Circle.
