Alonzo and Sarah Newton address their fellow members of Boston’s Edwards Congregational Church after experiences they understand as communication with spirits. They contrast a theoretical belief in the ministry of angels with what they describe as its realization in their own lives.
The letter recounts the development of their convictions, explains how those convictions relate to their earlier religious commitments, and asks the church to consider the consequences for continued fellowship. Personal testimony and arguments about spiritual communication form a compact record of early American Spiritualism. This complete second edition retains the May 1853 introductory note, original printed wrapper and signed conclusion.
