Manuscripts
The collection contains 675 letters from Charles Crocker to Collis Huntington and Huntington's secretary Isaac Gates written between August 1881 and December 1883. The letters were dictated by Crocker to private secretaries in San Francisco and sent to Huntington in New York City. The letters sent to Isaac Gates are adminstrative in nature. The letters explore Crocker's interests in banking, real estate, agricultural development, and mining. Most of the letters sent to Huntington are business-related, including Crocker and Huntington's interests in the Southern Pacific Railroad, the Central Pacific Railroad, the Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company, and other railroads and mines scattered through the Southwest, Oregon, and Mexico.
