For the life of the author plus 50 years at least; the US and some other countries have extended this to life plus 70 years.
The exact answer will depend upon whether the letters were published, when they were published, and whether the publication conformed to the formal rules for copyright in effect at the time. Also, if the author is anonymous, the letters will be copyrighted for 120 years from creation, unless created prior to 1978 and published (which could mean copyright of 28, 56 or 95 years).
