Manuscripts
This letter is perhaps written to publisher Thomas Cadell (it is just addressed to "Dear Sir"). In this letter, Brooke is talking about the printing of songs for one of her musicals that is going to be performed at Covent Garden. The year of the letter is not present but it may be 1782.

Manuscripts
This typescript of a memoir by Charles Brooks only contains six pages (presumably from a longer, more complete manuscript) that covers Brooks' time living in Placer County, including his father and uncle's experience with mining, the mercantile business, his remembrances of San Francisco, his journey back to Vermont, and later trips back to California.
