Correspondents include Hamilton Colton, Carlos Colton, Sheldon Colton, and Mary Whiting Colton. The Civil War correspondence of Carlos, Hamilton, and Sheldon Colton, George B. Whiting, and Mary Whiting Colton depict the life of a Union soldier as well as life in Ohio in wartime, including discussions of war and politics. There is also some poetry, one photograph, and some ephemera. The correspondence of George B. Whiting deals with his mission work in Beirut.
