Letter from Elizur Timothy Washburn, [Hartford, Connecticut], to Amos Augustus Phelps, 1829 April 10th

Elizur Timothy Washburn writes to Amos A. Phelps about his intention to sail to Liverpool for the summer months as "the heat in summer would be too oppressive for my invalid, who is liable to be debilitated in warm weather, as I am." He intends to return in the fall. He discusses his intention of setting up introductions to "dissenting clergy in England, & thus learn what is going on there in a religious view." He writes a second letter on the third page to another reverend speaking of the revival in MIddletown.
