Quakers seek relief on affirmation. In 1696 after experiencing decades of exclusion and imprisonment for conscientiously refusing to take loyalty and court oaths Quakers were granted the right by Parliament to take a "solemn affirmation" in legal situations in place of an actual oath. Over the next two decades numerous Quakers objected to the invocation of God's name in the official affirmation and refused it as they had the oath. In 1715 a bill was under consideration in Parliament to renew indefinitely the Quakers' right to the affirmation. The Quaker authors of the present petition support the bill but ask that it be amended with a revised affirmation that does not include the name of God.

1715ref. WRCAM39824London 1715. 4pp. Printed in two columns. Dbd. Small folio. Early folds and early stab holes in left margin. Some foxing. Very good. A rare and expansive appeal to Parliament against the 1715 bill to renew the Quakers' right to the "solemn affirmation" in place of the legal oath. In 1696 after experiencing decades of exclusion and imprisonment for conscientiously refusing to take loyalty and court oaths Quakers were granted the right by an act of Parliament to take a "solemn affirmation" in legal situations in place of an actual oath. In 1715 a bill was under consideration in Parliament to renew that act indefinitely. Significantly longer than most lobbying documents from this time this petition asks that Parliament only extend the act if the affirmation be made "of no Force where they are concern'd in Interest but where they only Affirm as Witnesses between others there being no Temptation for them to Lye when it brings no Profit to them." Many Quakers by this time had achieved significant prosperity in manufacturing and commerce adding fuel to their enemies' resentment. The author of this pamphlet charges various Friends with hypocrisy greed and swindling and reprints an earlier petition describing six widows of commanders of two "Guinea ships" allegedly defrauded by Quakers including one Quaker from Maryland.

1779ref. BK0134Philadelphia: Joseph Crukshank 1779. 8vo contemporary calf 256 pp. With the ownership signatures of Jonah Woolman and Burr Woolman. Front board and preliminary page detached else good fair condition. A strong association copy of the first edition owned by Jonah Woolman 1733-1799 younger brother of the Quaker minister and abolitionist John Woolman and subsequently by Jonah's son Burr Woolman 1787-1844. Churchman and John Woolman were fellow ministers and worked together directly in the campaign against slaveholding among Friends. In his Journal Churchman records that in 1759 he and Woolman were engaged in "visiting some active members of our Society who held slaves" in Philadelphia and New Jersey; Woolman's own journal likewise records meeting Churchman by agreement in Philadelphia and spending much of a week visiting Friends who held enslaved people. The provenance connects Churchman's account to the immediate family of one of his collaborators in this work. Jonah Woolman was John Woolman's younger brother and Burr Woolman whose ownership signature also appears was Jonah's son. . Joseph Crukshank unknown
