- Dr. Clara Barrus wrote to Zigrosser primarily about the poet and naturalist John Burroughs and domestic news about her rural life with the Burroughs family and the poet's day-to-day life and writing in his old age. Barrus also expressed her interest in the Zigrosser family and writes warmly in response to Zigrosser's letters. She writes about the progress of her own writing. Included is a small photograph of Burroughs and typescripts of letters to and by Burroughs concerning Walt Whitman.
