George Lawson letters
Manuscripts
The letters, most of which were written by George Lawson to his parents back home in Illinois, are about Lawson's experience mining for gold and living in the mining town of Ophir, California; there are several letters written from Sacramento, as Lawson spent some time in that city as well. His letters include details regarding gold discoveries, prices for supplies, the gold specimens he was sending home, and the machinery he was using for gold mining. There are two letters, probably written in 1864 and 1865, by L. L. Thaxter, that describe his experience with the Sanitary Commission, his visits to Civil War hospitals, and his encounters with wounded soldiers. Thaxter also discusses Ulysses S. Grant and the approaching end of the war. There are also two photographs included with the letters
