<hr align=left size=5 width=33% color=#778899>Attractive printed document entitled “The Epistle from the Yearly-Meeting in London,” 3½pp, legal folio, May 15, 1780. Nice content. Briefly reporting that the Friends endeavors have succeeded in nearly bringing an end to slavery in Europe, there is much attention given to instruction in the rearing of children. In very small part, <i>“...Youth are very liable to form intimacies...natural inclinations and passions...keep those under your charge...out of the way of temptation...frequent reading of the holy scripture...”</i> In bottom margin on verso is Pennsylvania Historical Society and deaccession stamps. Light soiling and edge wear; minor foxing; 1¼" fold separation with no paper loss; else in very good condition.
