" ■' '"The Quakers;" a study, historical and critical, by Frederick Storrs Turner, 1889, p. 292. * The same, p. 293. ' The same, p. 291. LIFE AND LABORS OF ELIAS HICKS 205 James Mott. Sr.. Of Mamaroneck, X. V. , was among the friendly, althoniih judicial critics of Elias Hicks. In a letter written I'^ii^iith month 5. 1805, to Elias. He said: "I am satisfied that the master hath conferred on thee a precions gift in the ministry, and I have often sat with pecnliar satisfaction in hearing thee exe...rcise it. " He then continues, referring to a si)ecial occasion: "But when thou came to touch on predestination, and some other erroneous doctrines, I thought a little zeal was suffered to take place, that led into much censoriousness, and that expressed in harsh expressions, not only against the doctrines, but those who had embraced them. ... I have often thought if ministers, when treating on doctrinal points, or our belief, were to hold up our principles fully and clearly, and particularly our fundamental principle of the light within, what it was, and how it operates, there would very seldom be occasion for declamation against other tenets, however opposite to our own ; nor never against those wdio have through education or some other medium embraced them.
