THE CHURCH OF THE INCARNATION
(EPISCOPAL)

2407 CASCADE ROAD, S. W.
ATLANTA 11, GEORGIA

THE REV. CECIL L. ALLIGOOD TELEPHONE
RECTOR January 29, 1963 PL. 5-6654-5

Mayor Ivan Allen
Mayor of Atlanta
City Hall

Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mayor Allen:

This is to let you know that I am an Episcopalian clergyman
and that I do not agree with my brethren who pass resolu-
tions “assailing” actions by you and other city officials
as you sincerely seek some fair and amicable solution to
the tense racial problems in this area of Atlanta.

There are between six and seven hundred people attending
this parish who live in the general area which is in dispute,
and they are very concerned about what may happen to the
property representing in many cases all that they own.

I personally believe you are doing what you can to alleviate
the tensions fanned and encouraged by sensational news re-
leases,

Sincerely yours,

CeerKk fotsa Clee 44t” (
