These manuscripts cover a variety of subjects including: the Salton Sea and water supply in California; the Colorado desert; the postal service; railway mail service; the Western Union Telegraph Company; railroads, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railway and the Southern Pacific Company; William Mulholland, Sir William Willcocks, Colonel George W. Goethals and the Los Angeles Aqueduct; the Panama Canal; the city of Los Angeles; the Rio Grande and floods in El Paso, and Juarez and Nogales, Mexico. Most of the speeches were given before the Los Angeles Pioneer Society. There is also one scrapbook with copies of articles by Hewitt and others and a typed copy of a letter by Jonas Winchester to Horace Greeley regarding newspapers in California, gold mining and San Francisco.
