They received us in the name of disciples with every mark of love and respect.

They were more disposed to sit in silence than to ask questions.

On my asking if they had seen or heard of any of our Friends, in these parts, one of them, innocently replied, No; we do not know anything of your religious principles.

I then began to explain them; and when I spoke of our manner of worship, belief, &c., and of some of our peculiar tenets respecting Baptism, the Supper, &c., it is not possible to express their emotion; their eyes turned first towards one and then towards another, and seemed to sparkle with joy, without their uttering a word till I had done.

These were entirely the principles they held, and about a year ago they separated from the church, about twenty in number, and attempted to meet for religious worship.
