Scope and content
The file consists of both original and photostat copies of correspondence written by James Anderson between 1854 and 1859. Correspondence is both personal and professional in nature. The majority of the correspondence is addressed to Sir George Simpson, although the file also includes letters to Anderson's brother, Alexander Caulfield Anderson, and to a number of other HBC employees.
The photostats appear to have been made of pages 284 to 308 of a letterbook written while Anderson was at Lake Simcoe between December 1858 and November 1859.
