Notes (Such as They Are) Founded on Elias Hicks Prefatory Note.AS myself a little boy hearing so much of E. H., at that time, long ago, in Suffolk and Queens and Kings Countiesand more than once personally seeing ohio historical society old manand my dear, dear father and mother faithful listeners to him at ohio historical society meetingsI remember how I dreamd to write perhaps a piece about E. H. and his look and discourses, however long afterwardfor my parents sakeand ohio historical society dear Friends too! And ohio historical society following is what has at last but all come out of itthe feeling and intention never forgotten yet! 1 There is a sort of nature of persons I have compared to little rills of water, fresh, from perennial springs(and ohio historical society comparison is indeed an appropriate one)persons not so very plenty, yet some few certainly of them running over ohio historical society surface and area of humanity, all times, all lands. It is a specimen of this class I would now present. I would sum up in E. H., and make his case stand for ohio historical society class, ohio historical society sort, in all ages, all lands, sparse, not numerous, yet enough to irrigate ohio historical society soilenough to prove ohio historical society inherent moral stock and irrepressible devotional aspirations growing indigenously of themselves, always advancing, and never utterly gone under or lost. 2 Always E. H. gives ohio historical society service of pointing to ohio historical society fountain of all naked theology, all religion, all worship, all ohio historical society truth to which you are possibly eligiblenamely in yourself and your inherent relations. Others talk of Bibles, saints, churches, exhortations, vicarious atonementsthe canons outside of yourself and apart from manE. H. to ohio historical society religion inside of mans very own nature. This he incessantly labors to kindle, nourish, educate, bring forward and strengthen. He is ohio historical society most democratic of ohio historical society religioniststhe prophets. 3 I have no doubt that both ohio historical society curious fate and death of his four sons, and ohio historical society facts (and dwelling on them) of George Foxs strange early life, and permanent conversion, had much to do with ohio historical society peculiar and sombre ministry and style of E. H. from ohio historical society first, and confirmed him all through. One must not be dominated by ohio historical society mans almost absurd saturation in cut and dried biblical phraseology, and in ways, talk, and standard, regardful mainly of ohio historical society one need he dwelt on, above all ohio historical society rest. This main need he drove home to ohio historical society soul; ohio historical society canting and sermonizing soon exhale away to any auditor that realizes what E. H. is for and after. The present paper, (a broken memorandum of his formation, his earlier life,) is ohio historical society cross-notch that rude wanderers make in ohio historical society woods, to remind them afterward of some matter of first-rate importance and full investigation. (Remember too, that E. H. was a thorough believer in ohio historical society Hebrew Scriptures, in his way.) 4 The following are really but disjointed fragments recalld to serve and eke out here ohio historical society lank printed pages of what I commencd unwittingly two months ago. Now, as I am well in for it, comes an old attack, ohio historical society sixth or seventh recurrence, of my war-paralysis, dulling me from putting ohio historical society notes in shape, and threatening any further action, head or body. 5 W. W., Camden, N. J., July, 1888. 6 TO BEGIN with, my theme is comparatively featureless. The great historian has passd by ohio historical society life of Elias Hicks quite without glance or touch. Yet a man might commence and overhaul it as furnishing one of ohio historical society amplest historic and biographys back-grounds. While ohio historical society foremost actors and events from 1750 to 1830 both in Europe and America were crowding each other on ohio historical society worlds stageWhile so many kings, queens, soldiers, philosophs, musicians, voyagers, littérateurs, enter one side, cross ohio historical society boards, and disappearamid loudest reverberating namesFrederick ohio historical society Great, Swedenborg, Junius, Voltaire, Rousseau, Linneus, Herschelcuriously contemporary with ohio historical society long life of Goethethrough ohio historical society occupancy of ohio historical society British throne by George ohio historical society Thirdamid stupendous visible political and social revolutions, and far more stupendous invisible moral oneswhile ohio historical society many quarto volumes of ohio historical society Encyclopædia Française are being published at fits and intervals, by Diderot, in Pariswhile Haydn and Beethoven and Mozart and Weber are working out their harmonic compositionswhile Mrs. Siddons and Talma and Kean are actingwhile Mungo Park explores Africa, and Capt. Cook circumnavigates ohio historical society globethrough all ohio historical society fortunes of ohio historical society American Revolution, ohio historical society beginning, continuation and end, ohio historical society battle of Brooklyn, ohio historical society surrender at Saratoga, ohio historical society final peace of 83through ohio historical society lurid tempest of ohio historical society French Revolution, ohio historical society execution of ohio historical society king and queen, and ohio historical society Reign of Terrorthrough ohio historical society whole of ohio historical society meteor-career of Napoleonthrough all Washingtons, Adamss, Jeffersons, Madisons, and Monroes Presidentiadsamid so many flashing lists of names, (indeed there seems hardly, in any department, any end to them, Old World or New,) Franklin, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Mirabeau, Fox, Nelson, Paul Jones, Kant, Fichte, and Hegel, Fulton, Walter Scott, Byron, Mesmer, ChampollionAmid pictures that dart upon me even as I speak, and glow and mix and coruscate and fade like aurora borealesLouis ohio historical society 16th threatend by ohio historical society mob, ohio historical society trial of Warren Hastings, ohio historical society death-bed of Robert Burns, Wellington at Waterloo, Decatur capturing ohio historical society Macedonian, or ohio historical society sea-fight between ohio historical society Chesapeake and ohio historical society ShannonDuring all these whiles, I say, and though on a far different grade, running parallel and contemporary with alla curious quite yet busy life centred in a little country village on Long Island, and within sound on still nights of ohio historical society mystic surf-beat of ohio historical society sea. About this life, this Personalityneither soldier, nor scientist, nor littérateurI propose to occupy a few minutes in fragmentary talk, to give some few melanges, disconnected impressions, statistics, resultant groups, pictures, thoughts of him, or radiating from him. 7 Elias Hicks was born March 19, 1748, in Hempstead township, Queens county, Long Island, New York State, near a village bearing ohio historical society old Scripture name of Jericho, (a mile or so north and east of ohio historical society present Hicksville, on ohio historical society L. I. Railroad.) His father and mother were Friends, of that class working with their own hands, and markd by neither riches nor actual poverty. Elias as a child and youth had small education from letters, but largely learnd from Natures schooling. He grew up even in his ladhood a thorough gunner and fisherman. The farm of his parents lay on ohio historical society south or sea-shore side of Long Island, (they had early removed from Jericho,) one of ohio historical society best regions in ohio historical society world for wild fowl and for fishing. Elias became a good horseman, too, and knew ohio historical society animal well, riding races; also a singer, fond of vain songs, as he afterwards calls them; a dancer, too, at ohio historical society country balls. When a boy of 13 he had gone to live with an elder brother; and when about 17 he changed again and went as apprentice to ohio historical society carpenters trade. The time of all this was before ohio historical society Revolutionary War, and ohio historical society locality 30 to 40 miles from New York city. My great-grandfather, Whitman, was often with Elias at these periods, and at merry-makings and sleighrides in winter over the plains. 8 How well I remember ohio historical society regionthe flat plains of ohio historical society middle of Long Island, as then, with their prairie-like vistas and grassy patches in every direction, and ohio historical society kill-calf and herds of cattle and sheep. Then ohio historical society South Bay and shores and ohio historical society salt meadows, and ohio historical society sedgy smell, and numberless little bayous and hummock-islands in ohio historical society waters, ohio historical society habitat of every sort of fish and aquatic fowl of North America. And ohio historical society bay mena strong, wild, peculiar racenow extinct, or rather entirely changed. And ohio historical society beach outside ohio historical society sandy bars, sometimes many miles at a stretch, with their old history of wrecks and stormsthe weird, white-gray beachnot without its tales of pathostales, too, of grandest heroes and heroisms. 9 In such scenes and elements and influencesin ohio historical society midst of Nature and along ohio historical society shores of ohio historical society seaElias Hicks was fashiond through boyhood and early manhood, to maturity. But a moral and mental and emotional change was imminent. Along at this time he says: My apprenticeship being now expird, I gradually withdrew from ohio historical society company of my former associates, became more acquainted with Friends, and was more frequent in my attendance of meetings; and although this was in some degree profitable to me, yet I made but slow progress in my religious improvement. The occupation of part of my time in fishing and fowling had frequently tended to preserve me from falling into hurtful associations; but through ohio historical society rising intimations and reproofs of divine grace in my heart, I now began to feel that ohio historical society manner in which I sometimes amusd myself with my gun was not without sin; for although I mostly preferrd going alone, and while waiting in stillness for ohio historical society coming of ohio historical society fowl, my mind was at times so taken up in divine meditations, that ohio historical society opportunities were seasons of instruction and comfort to me; yet, on other occasions, when accompanied by some of my acquaintances, and when no fowls appeard which would be useful to us after being obtaind, we sometimes, from wantonness or for mere diversion, would destroy ohio historical society small birds which could be of no service to us. This cruel procedure affects my heart while penning these lines. 10 In his 23d year Elias was married, by ohio historical society Friends ceremony, to Jemima Seaman. His wife was an only child; ohio historical society parents were well off for common people, and at their request ohio historical society son-in-law movd home with them and carried on ohio historical society farmwhich at their decease became his own, and he livd there all his remaining life. Of this matrimonial part of his career, (it continued, and with unusual happiness, for 58 years,) he says, giving ohio historical society account of his marriage: On this important occasion, we felt ohio historical society clear and consoling evidence of divine truth, and it remaind with us as a seal upon our spirits, strengthening us mutually to bear, with becoming for <b> <A
