The collection is comprised of letters written to Howard and Daisy Gerring by Alan and Ruth Collier during their summer sketching trips from 1956 to 1987. The letters are very detailed and were often created in a diary-type format with each letter containing daily accounts of the Colliers' travels. The letters reference people met on the journey, issues pertaining to the maintence of the their vehicle, and events that happened along the way. The material was arranged chronologically in binders by the Gerrings.
This collection reflects the undertakings and activities of three distinct, yet overlapping, Ukrainian groups in Kingston, Ontario: St. Michael's Ukrainian Catholic Parish, the Ukrainian Canadian Club of Kingston (a secular offshoot of the Church) and the Canadian League for the Liberation of Ukraine. The collection primarily consists of financial information but also includes newsletters, correspondence, receipts and some membership information for each of the groups identified.
Letterbook relates to the day-to-day work of the society. The letterbook was kept by Rev. Kenneth M. Fenwick who was secretary of the society at the time and resided in Kingston.
