This correspondence later documents the business controversy and resulting arbitration between them, which HDS pursued in the early stages of his mental illness against the wishes of his family. With his younger brother Charles, HDS discusses both national and local political events, social relationships, the health of their father, family finances, and his disputes with family members during his illness. Also found here is HDS's extensive correspondence with Jane Minot during their engagement from 1816-1817, which includes their plans for marriage and their future life. HDS's deteriorating mental health, beginning about 1828, is also in evidence within these letters.

HDS II became the company's attorney in 1886 in a series of legal actions against the New York Arcade Railway Co. and the commissioners of the City of New York, some of which were held before the New York State Supreme Court. The resulting papers compiled for legal research thoroughly document the history of the New York City subway system. They include legal briefs; arguments; statements; summons; complaints; copies of original charters; History of the Underground Railroad Charters, by H. D. Sedgwick and Nelson J. Waterbury (1886); mortgage certificates; indentures; maps; legal correspondence; and stock reports.
