Letters in 1862 are between Lucius J. Dupre, Laurent Dupre's father, a Louisiana legislator, who wrote to Jefferson Davis suggesting that the depleted Louisiana regiments be sent home from Virginia to defend their native state and from Jefferson Davis to Lucius J. Dupre about why his suggestion could not be followed. Letters, 1865-1866, are chiefly from family members to Laurent Dupre while he was a student at Louisiana State Seminary and Military Academy near Alexandria, La. Letters contain information about routine family matters and advice to Laurent about his studies and other affairs.
