A letterbook of James Ivers, sugar refiner of Boston. Ivers addressed most of his letters to his son James Trecothick who took his mother's maiden name when, as a loyalist, he fled Boston. The correspondence concerns legal suits and claims against Trecothick. The main suit was brought by Charles Ward Apthorp. Ivers also wrote of family news, especially the marriages of his daughters Hannah and Jane to Jonathan Loring Austin and Benjamin Austin, respectively.
