The Friends' Historical Society, Friends' Library of Philadelphia, The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, Swarthmore College and Haverford College, with Westtown and other Friendly centres or schools, can all receive and safeguard such material. We are just now most interested that somewhere this shall be preserved. If, as is proposed, the Friends' Historical Society of Philadelphia is to become the Friends' Historical Society of America, this point must be doubly urged. The collection of Quakeriana at Haverford College is the largest and most valuable in the United States. If, as we hope, all these various headquarters, to name only those in Pennsylvania, become the receiving centres for the efforts of residents in their vicinity, or, for any reason, of persons most interested in those particular collections, the great object will have been attained. This magazine should be the medium of information regarding such work, reporting receipts and aiding collectors. With such cooperation, in prospect of a growing membership in the Society which this publication represents, there are great possibilities before us. Therefore, let all Friends or those who are descendants of Friends, and who are interested in Quaker history, see to it that their heirlooms reach a place of security during their lifetime.","PeriodicalId":206864,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Friends' Historical Society of Philadelphia","volume":"49 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1922-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114042083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many important manuscripts, throwing light both on the doctrinal controversy and its unfortunate by-products, have been cataloged and made available for the student of that disturbed period of Friendly history. Then there is the Meeting for Sufferings Library. More than 1030 separate pamphlets and books have already been put into shape. These deal with such subjects as Indians, Negroes, War, Keithian controversy, Revolutionary War, Friends' Sufferings, Hicksite Separation, Beaconite Secession, Wilbur Separation, Ministry, Worship, Discipline, Exhortations, Epistles, Law, Tithes, Education, Doctrinal Matters, Sermons, Memorials, Controversial Subjects, Baptism, Lord's Supper, Jews, etc., a perfect treasure trove for historical research. There remain yet several thousand pamphlets and books to be indexed, the contents of the bound volumes of important publications, patiently collected by departed Friends, such as the elder Joseph Elkinton, Joseph Kite, George Scattergood, and others, and bequeathed to the Meeting for Sufferings. Many of these publications bear the signatures of honored names, their former owners, such as those of Pemberton, Benezet, Dillwyn, Fothergill, Emlen, Evans, and many other ancient worthies of fragrant memory. We are grateful to those Friends who had the concern of providing a modern receptacle for these priceless treasures, in the large Fire-proof Room attached to Friends' Book Store at 302 Arch Street, Philadelphia.","PeriodicalId":206864,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Friends' Historical Society of Philadelphia","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1922-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131972093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A much larger number of capital crimes existed than are listed on the statute books of today. From ten to eighteen crimes, for which the death penalty was prescribed, was usual in the colonial period. The situation in England was, of course, far worse. There, at the close of the eighteenth century, some three hundred capital crimes were specified. Even more striking is the difference in penalties prescribed for crimes not capital. Instead of imprisonment some form of corporal punishment or fines was imposed. Imprisonment, as a method of punishment, was first permanently applied in this country in the period following 1789 in Pennsylvania. In general, it may be said that the criminal codes of colonial Pennsylvania passed through three major transformations. The English or Puritan system was first introduced in 1676. This was superseded by the mild and humane Quaker code of 1682, which was a new and revolutionary departure in criminal jurisprudence.

He held at his death the office of vice-president of the Friends' Historical Society (London), and would have been elected president for 1921. He quite hoped to occupy the chair in person at the close of his year in office. He was one of the many links connecting the Yearly Meetings of Baltimore and London. Professor Thomas' wide knowledge of Friends' history and literature was always most gladly placed at the disposal of English students, and he was constantly in correspondence with the Librarians at Devonshire House, answering, sometimes after considerable search and enquiry, the many questions submitted to him. He was also the means of adding materially to the literary possessions of London Yearly Meeting, preserved at Devonshire House. A. C. Thomas' death was referred to at a recent meeting of the Library Committee of the London Meeting for Sufferings, and a minute of record passed in which occur the words,—\" His wide and accurate knowledge of Friends' history, and his unfailing willingness to render help, made him one of our most frequent and valuable correspondents.\" The latest service rendered to British Quakerism by our friend was that of interesting American Friends in the proposed purchase of the original manuscripts of \" The Journal of George Fox.\" In this service he had the valuable help of Rufus M. Jones, the result of their work being the acquisition of these relics by the Devonshire House Reference Library.
