W.H. Hurlbert letters to Mr. Dix, 1855-1856.

The collection contains six letters to Mr. [J. A.] Dix, of Dix, Edwards & Co., publishers, all having to do with publishing details about articles, presumably for Putnam's, which Dix, Edwards & Co. published at this time. Only two of the letters are dated (9 Aug. 1855 and 19 Feb. 1856), but the remaining probably date from 1855-1856. Five of the letters have been attached to thick paper borders.
