Excerpt from The Unanimous Remonstrance of the Fourth Congregational Church, Hartford, Against the Policy of the American Tract Society on the Subject of Slavery At a meeting of the Fourth Congregational Church of Hartford. Ct., held Nov. 23d, 1854, it was voted unanimously to appoint a Committee of three to investigate the facts connected with the policy pursued by the American Tract Society on the subject of Slavery. The Pastor, (Rev. Wm. W. Patton, ) John Hooker, Esq. and Mr. Milo Doty were constituted the Committee. This Committee, at a subsequent meeting, which was very fully attended, recommended to the Church the accompanying form of a letter of remonstrance to the Officers and Directors of that Society, which was unanimously adopted, and a copy ordered to be forwarded to each Officer and Director, and to be published in so many of the religious newspapers as might be willing to insert it.
