Pierson, Walter, Mrs.,. Mrs. Walter Pierson collection, 1721-1902 (bulk 1755-1800).

Title: Mrs. Walter Pierson collection, 1721-1902 (bulk 1755-1800).

Collection of sermons, correspondence, and other papers, 1721-1902 (bulk 1755-1800). Most of the collection consists of the papers of Archibald Laidlie and his immediate family, but there are also some papers related to the Scott family, including two letters from Rufus King to John W. Scott, and a printed sheet (undated) giving multiple copies of the Whig ticket headed by Joseph W. Scott as candidate for council. Other miscellaneous papers include a bundle of sermons dated 1721-1745, a number of deeds to land near Dakota City, Nebraska, dating from the 1870s, and a U.S. passport of the same date issued to Antonio Yznaga del Valle. The bulk of Laidlie's papers consists of sermons preached at Flushing (Netherlands) and New York, copies of the Heidelberg Catechism, and some volumes of his spiritual diary, written in 1755-1756; there are duplicate copies of some of the diary volumes. There are also papers recording his purchase of some debts due to Jared Lane of Connecticut, his notes (in Latin) on Hebrew and Arabic grammar, and letters to his brother, John Laidlie. Some are written from the Netherlands, including one describing the mourning customs he was obliged to observe after hearing the news of his mother's death. One letter describes his impressions of New York City soon after arriving there in 1765. Other family papers include letters from his widow, Mary Laidlie, copies of her will, and legal documents related to her interest in the estate of her father, Martin Hoffman. There are also letters from their son, William Laidlie, written while on military sevice in Vermont in 1800, and from their daughter, Catharine Laidlie Dey. Some of Catharine Dey's letters are written to her children, Mary Laidlie Dey and Richard Varick Dey. A box of sermons dating from the 1830s may be the work of Richard Varick Dey, and there are a few other letters to and from other members of the Dey family. A copy of the Magazine of the Reformed Dutch Church (May, 1827) contains a brief memoir of Archibald Laidlie.
