This incident resulted in the creation of a movement against similar activities by Eliphalet Nott and Lyman Beecher. Both William Van Ness and David Hosack provide firsthand accounts of this, and one of the participants had already engaged in similar activities with William Gordon, Aedanus Burke and John Mercer. This event was carried out with supplies of John Baker Church and it resulted in one participant being carried to the home of William Bayard. Causes of this event include animosity over one man's father-in-law, Philip Schuyler, losing a Senate seat and that same man's support of Morgan Lewis as Governor of New York.
