In this letter to Amos A. Phelps, Lewis Tappan explains that he has been suspended from the Communion of his church for insisting to keep a stenographer during his trial. He expresses his gratitude for the information Phelps and Mahan provided about Joel Parker, and asks more information about Parker's anti-slavery sentiments. He suspects that both he and another person in Philadelphia has been suspended from the church Communion for their stance on abolitionism. He also discusses mergers and movements of some anti-abolitionist and antislavery papers.
