Excerpt from The Peculium; An Endeavor to Throw Light on Some of the Causes of the Decline of the Society of Friends: Especially in Regard to Its Original Claim of Being the Peculiar People of God The Essay to which the second prize was adjudged is printed in the present volume. Whatever hope I may have had when I commenced, when I had finished the following Essay I certainly had no hope at all of seeing my name set forth as one of the successful competitors. I felt convinced that my work could not answer to the real heart's desire Of the generous ofl'erer of these prizes.

The reader will see that my own convictions, as expressed in this Essay, compel me rather to rejoice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
