The subseries consists primarily of weekly letters John wrote to his mother between 1961 and 1970. As an only child, John remained devoted to his mother until her death in 1976. To her he candidly discussed his career, family life, religion and political figures he met. A small number of letters were written by his wife, Jean Halstead and the children.

Also included in the subseries is Joan Halstead`s travel diary of a motor trip from Vancouver to the Mexican border in 1921, and a letter to her brother Frank Horler in 1974 which recounts her family history.
