Papers, 1679-1837 (inclusive), 1789-1837 (bulk).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122335955

Consists chiefly of correspondence of Brydges, including a large number of letters written by him to James Sheffield Brooks, Brooks & Grane, and Brooks, Grane & Cooper, dealing with various financial transactions and lawsuits. Several letters discuss Brydges' displeasure with the firm for supposedly withholding funds from an acquaintance and for ignoring Brydges' instructions. Among the rest of the correspondence are letters from various correspondents written to Brydges, including several from Montagu Pennington that discuss the politics, literature, and society of the day. Several letters from Pennington and other correspondents discuss Brydges' autobiography. Also included are two property deeds.
