Ihe Quaker's letter 10 his acatch-makcr- l herewith send thee my pocket clock, which standeth greatly in need of thy friendly cor recton. The last time that he was at thy friendly school, he was not in the least de- gree reformed or benefited thereby, for per- ceive by the index of his mind that he is a liar, and that the truth is not in him. His motions are wavering and irregular, his pulse is sometimes quick, betokeneth not an even temper; at other times he waxeth sluggish. Although frequently tell him that he should do his duty, as thou knowest his name de- noteth. find him slumbering and sleepy; or as the vanity of human reason phrases it, 1 catch him napping-hence am induced to believe he is not yet right in the inward man; cleanse him, therefore, thoroughly, pray thee, with thy charming physic, from all pol lution, that he may yibrate and circulate ac- cording to truth. will leave hima few days under thy friendly charge, and l will pay for his board as thou requlrest 1t. l entreat thee, friend John, to demean myself on this occa- sion with right judgment, according to the skill that is within thee, and prove myself a workman that need not be ashamed of his work; and when thou layest the correcting hand on him, let 1t be without passion, lest thou drive him to destruction. Do thou reg ulate and govern his motion for the time to come by the motion of the light that ruleth the day, and when thou fndest him corrected from the error of his ways, and more con- fornable to the aforementioned rules, do thou send himhome with just bill of charges, drawn out i'll the spirit, of moderation.
