Excerpt from Letters to the Rev. Leonard Bacon: In Reply to His Attack on the Pastoral Union and Theological Institute of Connecticut Rev. Leonard Bacon, Dear Sir - In your letters addressed to me, through the medium of the Record, you have taken such an extensive range, and introduced so many and various topics to the consideration of your readers, that it seems needful we should return to the immediate occasion of this discussion. And for this purpose I introduce the following letters. "To the Editor of the New Haven Record. "Dear Sir, - It appears that a correspondent of your paper, in the number issued the next after the late meeting of the General Association of Connecticut, has professed to give an account of the discussion which occurred in the Association, on the reception of delegates from the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. I have read with deep regret portions of that article, which have been quoted by the New York Evangelist, and the Connecticut Observer. Will you be so good, Sir, as to send me a copy of the number of your paper containing that article? And I shall be obliged, if you will inform me whether, (if it should be desired,) a reply to that article, with the name of the writer, can be inserted in the Record, on the condition, that it shall not be answered, except with the name of the person answering it. As you must be fully aware, Sir, your correspondent has not only brought against me and the worthy brethren who voted with me in the General Association, very serious accusations, but he has thrown out insinuations calculated to prejudice the public mind against the Theological Institute of Connecticut, I think the cause of Christ demands that the writer of that communication should be known, that there may be, (should it be judged expedient,) a private correspondence with him. Will you inform me who wrote that article? I should have written you, on this subject, at an earlier date, but did not know, till recently, that such an account of the discussion in the General Association had been published. "I am yours respectfully, "George A. Calhoun. "Coventry, July 26, 1839." "New Haven, July 30, 1839. "Rev. George A. Calhoun, "Dear Sir - Yours of the 26th was duly received. With this, in reply, I shall at the same time put in the mail the No. of the Record which you requested might be sent, together with the No. for last week, which contains a reply to some remarks in the Congregationalist. I entertain the hope, that, after seeing the whole of the first article, together with the explanations in the second, you will find that it is not what you have supposed it to be.
