Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours (1739-1817) was a French political economist, writer, publisher, and public administrator. In 1800, accompanied by his sons, Victor Marie du Pont (1767-1827) and Eleuthère Irénée du Pont (1771-1834), he arrived in America. This item is a pasteboard box for containing filed letters, made in France prior to 1799 and used by du Pont de Nemours to carry part of his papers when the family emigrated to America.
