Letter from Tobias Ostrander, Lyons, to Amos Augustus Phelps, Decr 6th 1826
Description:
In compliance to Amos A. Phelps’s request, Tobias Ostrander supplies information on Joseph Ennis. He says Ennis is not married, but has a group of illegitimate children. His social standing used to be good enough to be admitted to a fraternity and a lodge. Ostrander, who declares himself neither Ennis’s enemy—as Phelps has heard—nor his friend, says his daughter has a pair of twin children by Ennis.
