Included is a diary kept by Mrs. Loveland, 1855-1856, on trips through the South with her cousin, Caroline. The diary describes Richmond social life, religious services, clergymen, blacks, and black religious activities; and the resort of Magnolia, Fla., and short trips from there to Saint Augustine, Palatka, and Hibernia. There are comments on John Adams Dix, Bishop Alonzo Potter, and members of the Trumbull family of Connecticut who visited Magnolia. There are also personal letters of Mrs. Loveland to her family, one letter describing hazards faced by an unescourted female on New York streetcars; mementos relating to the election of Henry Martyn Hoyt as governor of Pennsylvania, 1879; notes apparently made with the intention of editing the diary; genealogical information on the Noyes and Loveland families; and clippings relating to the two families, including obituaries, poems, and news articles.
