Holograph, signed
Title devised by cataloger
On verso, the delivery address is "Rev. A. A. Phelps, No 5 Spruce St., New York City." It was postmarked on May 19 in Washington D.C
Russell Errett writes to Amos A. Phelps that Dr. Lemoyne would like to secure 25 copies of Goodelĺs book on constitution. He then talks about Mr. Moor, a land owner in West Virginia, who was indicted and driven from Virginia for circulating articles on antislavery. He says this is an example of slavery depriving ordinary citizens of their freedom, not just the black, for this violates the freedom of speech. He requests that Phelps send Mr. Moor the Reporter and a copy of the address presented at the Syracuse Mission Convention. He (Errett) is sending Phelps a few publications as well. On the verso of the letter, W. H. (William Harned ?) writes that he is forwarding this letter, which came to hand. He then discusses matters related to distributing some publications. He also mentions Charles Turner Torreýs funeral covered in the Reporter
