Correspondence concerns the activities of a travelling Yankee salesman selling medical apparatus and publications throughout the south. Most are addressed to Dr. George Seymour, Litchfield, Conn., a principal in a firm which manufactured bone-setting and other medical devices. Most letters concern the business but there are scattered comments on the Mexican War, California gold rush, politics, economic conditions and sectional tensions.
