Title devised by cataloger
Boston Public Library (Rare Books Department) manuscript composed in black ink on white paper. In the head- spine corner there is a faded, embossed circular logo with three feathers rising out of the top of the circle. The inside of the embossed circle is indistinguishable, but the number "8" has been written in pencil directly on top of the logo
George Jeffrey Tillotson writes to Amos A. Phelps to express his sympathy over the death of Phelp's wife. He then moves on to discuss the sickness moving through Brooklyn, Connecticut, that has killed members of his church. Tillotson also discusses some of the revivals taking place in Connecticut and mentions he is thinking "of going on, by request, to spend t[he] next week in old Windsor, aiding in a revivial." He then gives Phelps some more instructions about purchasing stocks in Boston
