The collection consists of the diary of Ebenezer Kellogg from 1817-1818 written to Chester Dewey, Professor of Mathmatics.
Kellogg describes his journey from Williamstown, Massachusetts to Charleston, South Carolina, Savannah, Georgia, and towns
along the Georgia coast. Most of the entries pertain to Georgia and discuss the people and towns Kellogg visited. Kellogg
writes about plantations and farming practices, particularly cotton and rice; and slavery, including how enslaved populations
lived, their treatment, and religious instruction.
