Book excerpt: Excerpt from Friends' Intelligencer, Vol. 65: A Religious and Family Journal; June 13, 1908-November 14, 1908 Consideration followed of minutes from Lanca shire and Cheshire and from London and Middle sex Quarterly Meetings, recommending the send ing Of a short message of love to all who bore the name of Friends in America. Edward Grubb said the thoughts before the Monthly Meeting of Kingston which brought the matter before the Quarterly Meeting, was that our Yearly Meeting might do something to help on a better understanding and more cordial feeling which were certainly growing - between the vari ous separated bodies of Friends in America. We as a Yearly Meeting maintained correspondence with some of these bodies and not with others. There was Philadelphia Yearly Meeting; there were the Wilburite or conservative separated bodies in most Yearly Meetings; and there was the great separation in 1827. Our Yearly Meet ing held a sort of mediate position, and if we could help to greater cordiality and understanding it would be well. There was no a'r'rie're pensee in the minute, it did not contemplate the setting up of a regular correspondence in the future, much less an organic union. All of these bodies would, he believed, prefer to retain their independence for some time to come. Such a document Should be much simpler and briefer than the last letter Of a similar kind, sent in 1857. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
