xi, [3], 303 pp. 12mo. A firsthand account of Christian missionary efforts of Job Scott of Rhode Island, including an account of visiting members of the Religious Society of Friends (of which Scott was also a member) in New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, and a voyage to England and Ireland (where he passed away in Ballitore, at the home of fellow Quaker Elizabeth Shackleton). Scott was a prominent quietist, and his thoughts and teachings contributed to the first schism in American Quakerism, the 1827 Hicksite-Orthodox split.
