Clippings are from various newspapers including Harper's weekly, Baltimore sun, Richmond dispatch, Pacific mining journal, Pacific churchman. Includes articles on James King of William, the Vigilance Committee of 1856, and Baltimore history. Also includes articles on religion, apparently written by Martenet, and a manuscript list of "original articles contributed to sundry papers." Includes an 1861 manuscript addressed to Simon J. Martenet, Jefferson Martenet's brother, in Baltimore, mentioning Jefferson Davis and A.H. Stephens; a Jefferson Martenet billhead from Baltimore; a photograph of a group of people outdoors; and California election tickets.
