The fonds consists of letterbooks, journals, ledgers, blotters, court dockets and registry office books that reflect the business of the law firm in handling estates and cases for their impressive list of clients. The papers reflect the input of all the major partners in the business since it's inception and include Thomas Kirkpatrick, George A. Kirkpatrick, R. Vachon Rogers, W.F. Nickle and John Macaulay. Of particular interest is an account book recording lots in Wolfe Island sold by C.W. Grant, fifth Baron de Longueuil. Individual records of various estates handled by the firm have been arranged and described as sous-fonds.
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.
