Series consists of correspondence files (vol. 3, files 75-78). Files 75-78 contain correspondence to Roswell Fisher, brother of Sydney Fisher, from Susan (Corse) Fisher and Sydney Fisher. Susanna Fisher's correspondence dates from 1895 (see file 75), while Sydney Fisher's letters date from 1907 and 1910. File 77 contains an excellent example of Sydney Fisher's informal writing at its best, as he describes a 1910 visit to Brussels for an international Agricultural Exposition. His candid remarks of Roosevelt, impressions gained on Canada's next Governor General, and discussion of side-trips relating to his position as Minister of Agriculture make for valuable reading.

Subject files (vol. 3, file 79): This sub-series contains statements of accounts, dated 1889-1891, on loans from Mr. Roswell Fisher to Mrs. Susanna (Corse) Fisher.
