    ^SA scse&M-"'-/ Edited by J. HALL PLEASANTS, M. D. Published by authority of the State VOLUME L Proceedings and Acts of the General Assembly of Maryland, 1752-1754. The fiftieth volume of Maryland Archives, just off the press, is a worthy companion to those which have preceded it.

As in other recent volumes of the work it is prefaced with a scholarly resume of the contents, by the Editor. The publication of the fiftieth volume of such a series is a matter of more than passing interest and should be a subject of gratulation to the citizens of the State at large, as it is an honor to the Maryland Historical Society, which has every reason to be proud of its stewardship of our State's invaluable archives.

Despite high social position and an excellent education, he shocked his upper-class associates by his conversion to the beliefs of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, then a persecuted sect. He used his inherited wealth and rank to benefit and protect his fellow believers. Despite the unpopularity of his religion, he was socially acceptable in the king's court because he was trusted by the Duke of York, later King James II.

  • Pennsylvania Magazine of HISTORY and BIOGRAPHY
    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY The First "Purchasers of Pennsylvania 1681-1700 ENNSYLVANIA, like West New Jersey, was a Quaker under- taking and had the wholehearted support of the Quaker leaders. PWithout the backing of this sect as a whole, William Penn would have been only another on a long list of proprietor-adventurers in the New World. As it turned out, when he launched his campaign for purchasers and settlers in the early summer of 1681, he found a response to his idea of a "Holy Experiment" that has no parallel in the story of American colonization. The vigor of the reception given Penn's scheme is to be attributed to the concern of the Quakers with existing conditions in Great Britain and Ireland.1 It is true that the persecutions of nonconform- ists under Charles II did not compare in intensity and harshness with those of earlier periods, that the persecutions were nowhere as vindictive or cruel or as near the extermination point as some thought, and that they were intermittent in the sense that all penal legislation was never enforced everywhere at one time nor anywhere continuously through the reign. And yet, as thinking Quakers re- flected upon the course of the persecution since 1660, as they wit- 1 William C. Braithwaite, The Second Period of Quakerism (London, 1921), discusses fully the nature and extent of the persecutions, 1660-1688. See especially pages 21-211. 137 I38 JOHN E. POMFRET April nessed its quick renewal in 1678 upon the acceptance of the flimsy evidence produced by the Titus Oates Plot, and as they observed the fierce antagonism of the extreme Whigs toward the Crown and the deep suspicion of the machinations of Charles II, they were con- vinced that England, though "sound, solvent, and sober-minded/' was certainly for them no land of promise either for the present or for future generations.2 The Friends were a small sect, but they were peculiarly vulnerable because they refused to meet in secret or to compromise on any principle that would substitute man-made law for the law of God.

  • The Influence of Biblical Texts Upon English
    THE INFLUENCE OF BIBLICAL TEXTS UPON ENGLISH LAW.* The subject of this address, "The Influence of Biblical Texts Upon English Law," must appear peculiarly unat- tractive. It suggests upon one hand a sermon, on the other hand a law lecture; and if there is anything less alluring than a sermon, especially on a week-day, it would be a lec- ture on law; and if there is anything more repellant than a lecture on law, I suppose it would be a sermon. The com- bination would be deadly. It was probably for this reason that the committee in charge of this performance did not announce my subject in advance, so I can only give you this brief warning of what you will have to endure. After this, in Biblical phrase, your blood be upon your own head; in legal language, volenti non fit injuria-thatis, no one can complain who is willing to be hurt. At the outset it may be proper to say what excuse there may be for selecting such a subject for a Phi Beta Kappa address. The object of our Society is stated in its Constitution to be the promotion of literature, and our motto indicates that philosophy, including religion and ethics, is worthy of cul- tivation as the guide of life. In selecting a topic for this address I felt that I must not wander too far from this pro- fession of faith, and yet that for practical reasons I was restricted to some subject within the narrower orbit of my own profession. But in a way the study of law will, espe- cially when undertaken from its historical side, inevitably lead, through more or less devious windings, into the whole world of learning and literature-for law is the system of rules governing the conduct of men as members of society *An address delivered before the Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma xi Societies of the University of Pennsylvania on June 14, Igio.

  • The English Settlers in Colonial Pennsylvania. 317
    The English Settlers in Colonial Pennsylvania. 317 THE ENGLISH SETTLERS IN COLONIAL PENNSYLVANIA. BY WAYLAND FULLER DUNAWAY, Ph.D. The Pennsylvania State College. Though the English were the dominant racial ele- ment in colonial Pennsylvania, no one has hitherto been at pains to tell the story of this race, as such, in the settlement of the province. A large number of monographs and articles have been written to describe the migrations, settlements and achievements of other elements of the population, such as the Germans, the Scotch-Irish, the Welsh, and the Swedes, but the Eng- lish have been strangely neglected. It would appear that the English of Pennsylvania take themselves for granted, and hence have not felt called upon to write up their own history. Again, they have not been so race-conscious and clannish as some others have been, but rather have been content to dispense with the hy- phen and to become thoroughly Americanized in thought and feeling.
