Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Friends of England Enough has been said to Show that it was not reserved 'for the statesmen of our day to comprehend the necessity of empire. Of course, it is not meant that Cecil or Cromwell foresaw and planned the structure of any Sudh empire as has arisen Since. Such an hypothesis would be absurd. But the con tention is that, just as we in our day annexed East Africa against Germany and West Africa against France, even so, with equal deliberation and for a Similar motive, did Cecil's contemporaries annex America, and Cromwell also a portion of the West Indies, against the power of Spain. It is by this series of annexations, made on this principle of self defence, that the empire has reached its present extent. Manifesto, dated October 26, 1655. 1 Cf: Gardiner, History of the Commonwealth and Protectorate, 1649 vol. Iii. P. 403.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Friends and Their Services in America: An Address Read Before the Friends Institute for Young Men, Philadelphia, Second Month 15, 1883 Two hundred and thirty-five years ago the Religious Society of Friends began to be known in England. Two hundred years ago this Province was first settled by William Penn. Of the latter event we have lately heard much, of the former but little 5 and yet the latter was so much the natural sequence of the former, that the history of the one is incomplete with out the history of the other. I propose, therefore, this evening to speak of three men, each of whom was prominent in the early history of the Society of Friends, and each of whom had somewhat to do with the settlement of Pennsylvania and its vicinity. I allude to George Fox, Robert Barclay and William Penn. I am well aware that to some who are present this account will have for them all the familiarity of a thrice-told tale. I cannot but believe that to others, and especially to the younger members of this Institute, there will be some facts mentioned which are new to them, and I am strong in the conviction that it will do no harm to any of us often to be reminded what manner of men they were to whom as Friends, and as Pennsylvanians, we owe so much.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America to England and Other Poems In his Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot, Pope writes, I lisped in numbers - for the numbers came. I can hardly say that, with perfect truthfulness. I sometimes wonder if Pope himself could. But I have been writing rhymes ever since I was seven years old. My father - a farmer - offered the munificent reward of one cent a page - nothing said as to size - for all I would write in the way of original composition - either prose or verse. When some of Mr. Beecher's parishioners complained because he said so many witty things in the pulpit, he told them that they would appreciate his reticence if only they knew how many witty things he refrained from saying. So, although I have published a great deal of verse, my friends would appreciate my self-denial if only they knew how much I have not published.

This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lafayette, the Friend of American Liberty The story of the Marquis de Lafayette forms one of the most interesting chapters in the history of human liberty. To understand clearly the nature of Lafayette's services, both to America and to the whole world, we must first think of the conditions of life at the beginning of his career, and then contrast them with those which now prevail. One hundred and forty years ago, when Lafayette was a child, the world was not so pleasant a place to live in as it is in our own time. Even in the most enlight ened countries of Europe, the majority of the people were downtrodden and oppressed. Men had scarcely so much as heard of liberty. Outside of England and her colonies, the idea of popular freedom was unknown. This idea, as you may have learned elsewhere, seems to have been a sort of birthright of the anglo-saxon race. Ever since the barons of England forced King John to grant them a charter of rights, the peoples of that race have defended and cherished it. Like 'a spark of fire in the midst of gen eral gloom, it has oftentimes been almost extinguished; and yet, no matter how its enemies have tried to pstamp it out, it has survived and been rekindled.

Download or read book Constitution and Discipline for the American Yearly Meetings of Friends Classic Reprint written by Society of Friends and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitution and Discipline for the American Yearly Meetings of Friends For a time the members called themselves The Friends of Truth. The distinguishing doctrines of Friends have from the beginning led them into special lines of service that have resulted in great good to mankind. Because they would not comply with unjust requirements they were imprisoned in great numbers in England until their quiet endurance of oppression aroused the con science of the nation, and this resulted in obtaining many of the blessings of civil and religious liberty which all now enjoy. They were the consistent and unyielding Opponents of human slavery when they stood almost alone in their opposition to it. They have opposed war as violating the principles of Christianity, as well as the precepts of its Founder, and as bring ing untold evils upon mankind, and they have always advocated peaceable methods of settling disputes between nations. They have steadily advocated jus tice toward the North American Indian, and have labored independently and as the representatives of government, for his civilization and christianization. They believe that oaths were forbidden by Christ, and they have obtained in all English-speaking countries the privilege of affirmation. They have advocated, and in many cases inaugurated, prison reform, which has greatly relieved the sufferings of convicts. They have been among the leaders in the rational and Chris tian treatment of the insane; and, in many other ways, have engaged in the service they felt laid upon them for the good of humanity. Friends came to America soon after the body arose in England. New England Yearly Meeting was established in 1671, or earlier; Baltimore in 1672.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Society of Friends in America, Vol. 1: Part IV As in New England, so also in the province of New York, the Society of Friends from its rise made a gradual and onward progress, and many' of those who had embraced its doctrines, shone brightly in the cause of truth, and were as lights to the inhabitants of the land. They were concerned in their daily walk, to adorn the doctrine of God their Saviour; and by their faithfulness, they were instrumental to the gathering of others to the enjoyment of the substantial realities of religion. The blessing of the Lord was upon this portion of his people, and the heavenly dew evidently rested upon them. Under the constraining influences of divine love and life, the mouths of several were opened to declare of the riches of the heavenly kingdom, and of the peace and joy which was to be found within the safe enclosure of the fold of Christ.
