At the top of the letter, annotation says, "Copy of a letter to Rev. R. Anderson of the Am. B.C.F. Missions."
A.A. Phelps writes to Rufus Anderson about the article Anderson published in the Missionary Herald, entitled “Extract from a communication of Doct. Hall to the Maryland Colonization Society.” Supplying information that “clashes somewhat” with Doctor Hall’s evaluation of Cape Palmas as a potential colony for the free black, Phelps asks Anderson to publish this information. The letter is followed by Phelps’s private note to Anderson asking to publish the preceding part of the letter.
