The collection primarily consists of correspondence and writings of Charles G. Halpine, dating from 1848 to 1868. Also present are photographs (mostly cartes-de-visite of Civil War soldiers), ephemera, newspaper clippings, an 1864 pocket diary, an incomplete novel draft, and a biographical sketch of Halpine written by his wife, Margaret G. Halpine. Correspondence discusses New York politics and literary life, and Halpine's experience in the U.S. Civil War. Correspondents include Horace Greeley, John Milton Hay, David Hunter, Christopher Raymond Perry Rodgers, Benjamin Penhallow Shillaber, Alfred Howe Terry, and Margaret G. Halpine. Some letters written by Halpine and others are photocopies made from microfilm loaned by William Hanchett in 1967.
