Philadelphia: Philip Price. Moderately worn leather covers, leather chipping on spine and bottom of back cover, red title plate with gold title on spine, spine ends chipped. Front hinge cracked, owner name in old hand. Foxing, else binding tight and pages good. Title continues: " Held in Philadelphia: With Introductory Remarks On the State of the Primitive Churches, Their Gradual Declension, and Subsequent Advancement in Reformation, to the Rise of the Society of Friends." As the orthodox Declaration seemed designed to produce an impression that the greater part of the Yearly Meeting have changed their religious views, Cockburn undertook to "exhibit a correct outline of transactions as they took place." He shows that the particular causes of the disorders "have been produced by the same thirst of power which acting on the mind of man, has proved in every age a source of disorder both in religious and civil society."
