The collection consists of 5 architectural drawings and one set of specifications for a summer residence in Le Bic, Québec. It is assumed the building was built. The architects are James and Charles Nelson of Montreal. James Nelson (1830-1915) was born in England and in 1853 became an associate of John Williams Hopkins, a British born, Montreal architect who designed many commercial buildings in Old-Montreal, many of which are still standing. No surviving archives of James Nelson are known, at least not under his own name. The summer residence was built for John Gault of Montreal, probably a son of the influent Montreal businessman Mathew Hamilton Gault who, incidentally, also owned a summer residence on the Lower Saint Lawrence at Cacouna, near Rivière-du-Loup.
