This series consists of only one item, a bail book from the Wellington Police Station.

The following notes are part of the original documentation for the Police [P] Record Group:

The bail book (or recognizance book) was used for police bailing out a prisoner. It included details of the informant and defendant, a short description of the charge, a signed oath to appear on a certain date to face the charge, and the surety required – some entries included a receipt for the surety paid.

Another form of bail book recorded date, name of prisoner, his residence and occupation, the conditions of his recognizance, the amount of bail, plus the name, residence occupation and amount of bail paid by his sureties.

Most bail books were indexed alphabetically according to the prisoners surname. The index gave an annual number or page reference to the relevant entry in the bail book.
