Ogden Edwards papers

Manuscripts

The Ogden Edwards papers consist primarily of incoming correspondence of Pierpont Edwards and Ogden Edwards, with some other, seemingly unrelated, letters retained evidently for their autograph value. The letters and ephemera date from 1753-1903. Of the 43 letters, many contain annotations identifying famous authors or addressees. The annotations are penned in the same hand as the list of famous historical personages, apparently, a catalog and/or list of collector's wanted items; the names represented in the Edwards collection are ticked off. The rest of the collection are letters retained for their autograph value. This portion consists individual letters by Thomas Gage, Samuel Huntington, Stephen Girard (1750-1831), William Gaston (1778-1844), Oliver Wolcott (1760-1833), William North (1755-1836), and Marie Joseph Lafayette, and indemnification bond to the Overseers of the Poor of Dover Hundred (Delaware, 1761).

Leonard F. Ross papers

Manuscripts

This collection consists of four items relating to Leonard F. Ross' Civil War career, including two communications from Ulysses S. Grant. Grant's autograph letter signed dated 1861 December 4 (HM 69444) discusses confiscations from Missouri citizens and instructions for dealing with marauding Confederates; the contemporary copy of his 1862 October 5 letter (HM 69445) recaps a dispatch from General William S. Rosecrans detailing the movement of federal troops during the pursuit of Confederate General Earl Van Dorn's forces at Corinth, Chewalla and Ripley, Mississippi on 1862 October 3-4. Also present is a receipt from Henry P. Noble to Ross for a payment for a horse, 1863 April 28 (HM 69446), and an undated copy of "Foraging Parties Instructions," with Ross' note "Please read to the guards" (HM 69447).
