Letters
Chiefly letters to Ellen from her father, Dr. Austin Peirce, and her brother, Dr. William Peirce, both physicians. Those from William written while he lived in Coldwater (formerly Marshall Co.; now Tate Co.), Miss., provide insight into a northerner's view of southern culture. There is also discussion of teaching in both the North and South. The letters reflect Ellen's relationship with her father and with her brother.
