"Holograph, signed. Title devised by cataloger. On verso, the delivery address is \"Rev. Amos A. Phelps, Boston, Mass.\" It was postmarked with an orange circular stamp but the words are illegible. It is stamped, \"PHELPS MSS.\" in the head- fore corner of the first page. Boston Public Library (Rare Books Department) manuscript composed in black ink on white paper. Along the spine edge of the letter, there are also four small, evenly-spaced, perforations. On the verso there is a red seal, covered with paper, below the delivery address and near the spine edge of the page. There is a hole extending 1.8 cm from the fore edge, about halfway down the last page, below some black ink stains. Also on this last page, in the head- fore corner, the phrase \"MS.A.21.8.76\" is written in pencil. Cataloged sgellerman"
