The Opie material includes two corrected manuscript travel journals, poems, and songs; the correspondence includes letters to various family members. There is also a poem, "To Mrs. Opie," by Sir Edward Denny (1796-1889), the hymnist, and one letter to Opie by James Smith (1775-1839), the writer and humorist. The manuscripts and letters are written by Opie unless otherwise noted. The family-related manuscript material includes fair copies of poems, prose pieces, and excerpts from Jane Austen. The correspondence includes letters from, among others, Elizabeth Alderson Briggs, Henry Perronet Briggs, Hilda Mary Carr, and James Haslewood Carr; many of the letters are addressed to Catharina M.
