Summary:
The document was already known to exist and we had copies. This is the finding of the original, an open letter stating that 116 Baptist (?) ministers "disapprove and abhor the institution of American slavery".
The American Baptist church had already made efforts to locate it in various university libraries. It turned out to be stored in their own archives.
