This incoming correspondence deals mostly with the company's work on the Dutch Gap on the James River Improvement Project in Virginia, their work with the U.S. Engineer's Office on the Philadelphia Navy Yard at League Island, and their work with the Coosaw Mining Company in Charleston, South Carolina. The correspondence also deals with several other projects. Most of the correspondence is written to Somers and Colton. Correspondents include: William P. Craighill, William Ludlow, Franklin C. Prindle, Robert Ransom, Andrew Adger, David Lopez, Benjamin Maillefert, and Grantham Israel Taggart, Sr. (list is not exhaustive).
