1812. THOMAS MACAULEY (1778 -1862) American radical Presbyterian clergyman who became pastor of the Rutgers Street Church, New York City, in 1822.

Rutgers and Ann Hoyt, in the presence of several witnesses...". Daniel Rutgers was the founder of the school which more his name. A nice association piece linking two of the most powerful New York religious figures of the nineteenth century. Fold tears expertly mended, overall very good. $250-350
