Colored American, October 9, 1841, p.2

ARMISTAD [sic] AFRICANS.--The committee, who have from the commencement so nobly stood by these brethren, having received, perhaps all the information they can reasonably hope for with respect to the country of these brethren, and the nearest point of access to it from the coast, have determined to start them for their own, their native home, “sweet home,” by Sierra Leone, this fall.--They have in view two missionaries to accompany them. We hope really, that they will both go. These brethren certainly ought not to return without one, two or more faithful, holy brethren to accompany them. A better opportunity to give the pure gospel to Africa, never before offered. The committee are again calling for funds, and in the best of causes too, and we doubt not the needful sum will be forth coming. Our brethren will no doubt contribute their part. for farther particulars see notice in another column.
