Description

Excerpt from Mr. Tuckerman's First Quarterly Report: Addressed to the American Unitarian Association

You ask me, how much time and exertion my services require? I answer, that I give to them all my time, and all my strength. Most of those whom I now visit live at the north part of the town. But I also visit families in the eastern, western, and southern sections of the city; and not a week passes, in which I am not extending my charge. Two more missionaries, within three months, might find duty enough to fill up every waking hour.

It may not be amiss to add, that I have numbered two hundred and eighty-three visits made to the people of my charge. Besides these, however, I have been into many families, of whom I learned that they regularly worship with some one of our religious societies, and whom, therefore, I visited no more. Nor do I include in this number of visits, those which I made to Colson, in prison; nor those which I have made in the house of correction.
