ELEVENTH ANNUAL BEPORT. MADAGASCAR. R e p o r t o f t h e S u b -C o m m i t t e e . W e have much cause to thank God, as we review the work of our Mission in Madagascar during the past year. In some respects it has been a time of severe trial:— the sudden removal of our beloved friend Alice Mary Thorne (née Sewell) to her home in heaven, and the temporary return of Henry and R. M. Clark to their native land, after nine years absence, together with the return of our friend Louis Street, to America, have thrown upon the few still remaining in the island an amount of work which has strained their powers to the utmost. But, notwithstanding these sources of weakness, help has been given to our friends to carry on their work without serious loss to the Mission in any depart­ ment; and there has been little in the political at­ mosphere to cause hindrance to missionary labour. The work in the country districts is that which has been most affected by the paucity of mission­ aries ; for though native help is yearly becoming more effective,— both as regards the number and efficiency of the workers— yet the wise superintend­ ence of the missionary is still absolutely required ; and, whilst the members of our Mission are so few as to make it necessary that they should all reside in the capital, this cannot properly be given. The Reports of William Johnson’s school at the 6 Capital continue to be very satisfactory. William Wilson, who left England to join the Mission last Eighth-month, is actively employed in the Teachers’ Training Department in this establishment. W e have felt that the repeated appeals for help to­ wards the enlargement and repairs of the school building, call for urgent attention; and we have, therefore, authorised the Committee in Madagascar to commence the work at once, appealing to Friends in England for a special subscription to­ wards defraying the cost. W e have been much encouraged by the liberal way in which our appeal has been responded to, and regard it as a striking testimony to the continued interest of Friends in the Mission. The subscription list for this object amounts to over £800. Samuel Clemes has continued his work with un­ remitting attention, both at the Capital and in the country districts, where, especially, his knowledge of medicine is largely made use of, and proves of great value. Our indefatigable printer, A. Kingdon, has greatly felt the absence of those who in past years provided much work for the press ; especially, as the same cause has prevented the few who remain from spend­ ing as much time as heretofore in literary work. He has, however, been able partly to make up for this deficiency by employing, as translators, several natives who have studied English in our schools. Frank and Rasoa have rendered most valuable assistance. An interesting feature of the work connected with the printing press has been the increased attention paid to Lithography. A youth, educated at Ambohijatovo school, who had made much progress in drawing, has been employed by A . Kingdon in lithographing illustrations for books, and large maps for the use of schools, the latter chiefly prepared by W . Johnson. He has shewn much aptitude for his work, and our small lithographic press has produced much in the past year that has proved both interesting and valuable. Whilst speaking of illustrations, we must make some allusion to the efforts made by our friend Isaac Sharp, to induce his young friends in England to help their brothers and sisters in Madagascar. Mainly through the money raised by them we have had printed, on full sized sheets of paper, many of the plates from the English “ Children’s Friend;” the letter-press having to be supplied in Madagascar. This has enabled A. K. to publish a “ Children’s Friend” at Antananarivo every month. The work is very popular among the young people there, but, as the stock of prints already furnished will be exhausted early next year, A. K. earnestly pleads that a fresh supply may be soon sent out. It will be remembered that Helen Grilpin, when in England, pressed upon Friends here the needs of her school, and received much pecuniary assistance towards its enlargement. W e are glad to be able to say that the alterations required are now com­ pleted. H. Gr. returned to Madagascar last summer, and she now rejoices in the increased facilities for carrying on her important work. When Louis Street left the island last autumn, Sarah T. Street, seeing that Helen Grilpin had returned alone, kindly offered to stay with her for another year. This has proved a great help to her, but, in the prospect of soon losing this assistance, H. Gr. appeals earnestly to her friends for a companion in her work. W e do trust that it may not be in vain. In looking back over the twelve years which have passed since the humble beginnings of the Friends’ Mission, during which, upwards of £40,000 has been furnished by the subscribers, and £30,000 spent in Madagascar alone; and during which period, so much hearty, devoted work on the part of the missionaries has been given; we rejoice to believe that this expenditure— whether of time, work, or money— has not been in vain, but that it has exercised a permanent influence, both as regards the present and future welfare of the Island. In conclusion, we wish again to express our grati­ tude to God for His support and guidance during the past year. Even our exigencies have been blessed in leading to an increased development of native help. And we take courage in believing that the work in which we are engaged continues to have the warm interest of a large body in our Society, who will, we believe, never fail to give the pecuni­ ary assistance needed in the work. And, may our gracious Lord— who, when on earth, was Himself touched with the thought of how few were the labourers— call, make willing, and abundantly quali­ fy others in our Society, to enter into His work in the distant portions of His great harvest-field, as well as in those that are near. J. H. TUKE. IN DIA. R e p o r t o f t h e S u b -C o m m i t t e e . T he circumstances of the past year, in connexion with our Indian Mission, while they point to the continued and increasing calls for Christian labour, 9 have also shown unexpected discouragements and temporary interruptions. The illness of Charles Gayford and his wife,— the former having been more or less prostrated by fever for about the space of six weeks— made a temporary change to Bombay needful for them, since which time, reports as regards health have been more satisfactory. The fact of a change to an European climate being strongly recommended, has doubtless had its weight in inducing our friend C.

    Patterns of Membership and Participation Among British Quakers, 1823 – 2012 JAMES WILLIAM CROAN CHADKIRK A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of Theology, Philosophy and Religion Centre for Postgraduate Quaker Studies The University of Birmingham September 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract During the 1850s there was rising concern in the Society of Friends about declining membership. From the 1840s attempts were made to obtain hard statistics on adherence and in the late 20th century another decline again reduced numbers to the level of the 1850s and 1860s. This thesis reviews and analyses data from the middle of the 19th century to 2012, illuminating variation in both membership and participation in church worship and governance. It presents new data on participation in meeting for worship and provides geographical and socio- metric data on the origins of enquiries about Quakerism, providing both a research tool for further work by bringing large volumes of information together and illuminating the ways in which the size and the social structure of the Society of Friends has varied with time.

    25 QUAKER MISSIONARY WORK IN GERMANY FROM 1790 until 1899. LIST OF ALL ANGLO-AMERICAN VISITORS. he first and only Quaker settlement in continental Europe was founded in 1792, when Duke Frederick of Pyrmont T(1743-1812) permitted a group of Pietists to found "Friedensthal" (Peace Valley) near Pyrmont in the very heart of Germany.1 The settlement consisted of several modern communal houses and workshops. Ludwig Seebohm (1757-1835), the master mind of early German Quakerism, operated a printing press and a paper factory, David Frank manufactured knives and Theodor Marschhausen directed the first German Quaker school. The significance of the prospering settlement lay in modern educational endeavours, such as liberal pedagogy, new Quaker literature, and the founding of a girl's boarding school by Judith Bawier. The spacious meeting house was build in 1800, the second one in Germany after Friedrichstadt (1678). Visitors to Friedensthal, who included poet Matthias Claudius (1740-1815), Princess Luise of Prussia and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who however, did not ultimately become a Quaker. The settlement maintained close contact with various Anglo- American Friends, who usually were appointed by their local meetings for travelling in the ministry. Over the nineteenth century, a constant growing number of visitors also came as tourists, without any certificate from their home meetings. The more prominent visitors included Thomas Shillitoe, Benjamin Seebohm, Stephen Grellet and Elizabeth Fry. Nearly all important Quakers of the nineteenth century come to Germany, some of them frequently. More than once you will find clerks among them or other important representatives of the Society of Friends.
