Cite as: Henry Joel Cadbury papers (HC.MC.950.034), Quaker & Special Collections, Haverford College, Haverford, PA. Biography/History Henry Joel Cadbury (1883-1974) was a biblical scholar and Quaker historian. He was born on December 1, 1883, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the son of Joel Cadbury Jr., and Anna Kaighn Lowry. Henry Cadbury was educated in Quaker schools, graduating in 1899 from William Penn Charter School. He attended Haverford College, where he wrote for the college newspaper, the Haverfordian, eventually - Page 3 - Henry Joel Cadbury papers working his way up to editor-in-chief during his senior year. He was also a part of the Campus Club, a club dedicated to the planting and maintenance of Haverford's grounds. He became secretary of the Classics Club, treasurer of the Tennis Club, and a member of the gymnastics team. He also earned honors in Greek and philosophy, a prize for systematic reading and mathematics, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and became class president and class poet. Cadbury earned his master's degree from Harvard University in 1904 and his Ph.D., also from Harvard, in 1914. He taught at the University Latin School in Chicago, Westtown School, Haverford College, Harvard University, and Bryn Mawr College. Cadbury married Lydia Brown on June 17, 1916, and the couple had four children: Elizabeth (b. 1917), Christopher Joel (b. 1921), Warder Henry (b. 1925), and Winifred (b. 1926). Cadbury was a founder and early member of the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC). During World War I, in addition to his work with the AFSC, Cadbury wrote letters to various press sources. Cadbury became a volunteer publicist for the AFSC, and traveled to France and Germany to provide aid to children in Europe. He was the director of the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), 1928-1934 and 1944-1960. He delivered the Nobel Prize lecture in 1947, on behalf of the AFSC and the British Friends Service Council, when the organizations accepted the Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of the Religious Society of Friends. In March of 1954, Cadbury retired from teaching. He moved to Pendle Hill, a Quaker retreat in Wallingford, Pennsylvania, and lectured there. The remainder of Cadbury's life was spent teaching, traveling, and supporting the American Friends Service Committee. He finished writing three books in 1972, including Narrative Papers of George Fox, the work he had started when on sabbatical in Woodbrooke almost 30 years earlier. Henry Cadbury died on October 9, 1974. Scope and Contents This collection is comprised of the papers of Henry J. Cadbury, and includes research notes and correspondence.

  • 2009 Lecture
    2009 THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE The Quaking Meeting Transforming our selves, our meetings and the more-than-human world Helen Gould In Meeting for Worship we may sense a mystical communion with God through each other. This is the gift of the ‘gathered meeting’. THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURES The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on its establishment in 1964. They are named after James Backhouse who, with his companion, George Washington Walker, visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered at the Australian National University, Canberra, on Monday, 5 January 2009, during the annual meeting of the Society.

  • Of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014
    Index of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014 Introduction Many remarkable gifts have come out of the Pendle Hill experience, but few are more remarkable than the series of Pendle Hill Pamphlets, ongoing now for eighty years. Conceived as the published equivalent of messages spoken in a Friends’ meeting for worship, these brief essays reflect the range and vision of unprogrammed Quaker religious thought and practice. Among the authors represented here are a handful of famous names, such as Toynbee, Weil, and Buber. But for the most part the pamphlets are the works of a “cloud of witnesses” distinguished primarily for their spirit and expressiveness. And while there are recurring themes among them (peace, worship, art), the four hundred-plus titles cover almost as many topics. Over the years, many readers have commented on the richness of spiritual resources and information represented in these essays. Many have also asked for help in using them in study, reflection, and research. This index is designed to answer that need. It includes four sections: • Section I is an annotated list of the pamphlets. This list is in numerical order, and the pamphlet number serves as a cross-reference tool throughout the index. Each listing includes title, author, date of publication (in parentheses), a brief summary of the essay, and its subjects. • Section II groups the pamphlets alphabetically by author. • Section III lists the pamphlets alphabetically by title. • Section IV offers a subject index for the pamphlets. Index by Number Cooperation and Coercion as Methods of Social Change Nicholson, Vincent De Witt (1934) 1 The author asks if the consequences of differences and conflicts can be creative instead of devastating.

Mueller ,,\ 11,-:. ~ "/" \\,':: BRO A D MAN PRESS B P Nashville, Tennessee © 1959 • BROADMAN P RESS Nashville, Tennessee All rights reserved International copyright secured 423-08039 Library of Congress catalog card number 59-9687 Printed in the United States of America 5.N58KSP To All the Alumni Preface HE DREAMS, devotion, and insight of James Petigru Boyce brought into focus the desires of Southern Baptists for a Tcentral theological institution and thus determined that a cen­ tennial history of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary would have to be written at this time. It is appropriate, therefore, to let Dr. Boyce set the tone of this preface. The Civil War had driven the Seminary from its original home in Greenville, South Carolina, to Louisville, Kentucky. On the occasion of the opening session in this new home, September 1, 1877, Dr. Boyce looked back over the first eighteen years of sig­ nificant struggle and said: I do not propose to recount the history of this enterprise. That history, so far as it ever can be written, must await the full fruition of all our hopes, and should come from one less intimately asso­ ciated with it than I have been. It never can be written in full; it never ought to be thus written. It is only God's inspiration which dares speak of evils and faults and injuries and calumnies proceeding from men whom we know to be good. That inspired Word alone can make these simply the shadows which bring out more gloriously the brightness of the character of the good.

  • Henry Joel Cadbury: a Quaker Luminary Dec 1, 1883 – Oct 9, 1974
    Henry Joel Cadbury: A Quaker Luminary Dec 1, 1883 – Oct 9, 1974 Friends Southwestern Burial Ground Upper Darby Delaware County, Pennsylvania Give Unto Caesar: Credits for the contents of this illumination go to Henry J. Cadbury, Wikipedia, Pendle Hill Pamphlet 376, various schools, college and university libraries including Bryin Mawr, Swarthmore, Haverford, Harvard, Pennsylvania State University and a bunch of others I’ve failed to mention. Some sections are direct quotes from the sources, others are edited or paraphrased. Some comments are the author’s. Delivered Sunday, February 17, 2019 at Patapsco Friends Meeting. “A graduate of Haverford College, [Henry J.] Cadbury was a Quaker throughout his life, as well as an agnostic. Forced out of his teaching position at Haverford for writing an anti-war letter to the Philadelphia Public Ledger, in 1918, he saw the experience as a milestone, leading him to larger service beyond his Orthodox Religious Society of Friends. He was offered a position in the Divinity School at Harvard University, from which he had received his Ph.D, but he first rejected its teacher's oath for reasons of conscience, the Quaker insistence on telling the truth, and as a form of social activism. He later accepted the Hollis Professorship of Divinity (1934–1954). He also was the director of the Andover-Harvard Theological Library (1938–1954), and chairman (1928–1934; 1944–1960) of the American Friends Service Committee, which he had helped found in 1917. He delivered the Nobel lecture on behalf of the AFSC when it, together with the British Friends Service Council, accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947 on behalf of the Religious Society of Friends.” (Wikipedia) 1 Partial List Of Works: • The Style and Literary Method of Luke.
