Letter from Arthur Tappan, New Haven, to Amos Augustus Phelps, Jany 17 1835
Description:
In this letter to Amos A. Phelps, Arthur Tappan urges the recipient to “use [his] influence to induce friend Garrison to lay aside the inventive and denunciation that too often characterize his writing.” In his opinion, Garrison is “doing great injuries” to the abolitionist cause. He says the Liberator is well edited otherwise, and wishes Garrison will take up the subject of the Colonization Society and write “temperate essays justifying his opposition to it.”
