The two volumes of letters sent, 1 (162) and 2 (163), cover the period March 1867–August 1868. The letters in both volumes are arranged chronologically. Volume 1 (162) is dated March 1867–August 1868, and Volume 2 (163) is dated November 1867–January 1868. There are only a few letters in Volume 2 (163); all are addressed to officials in Hemstead County and do not appear to be duplicated in Volume 1 (162).
