A47144	A Farther account of the great divisions among the Quakers in Pensilvania, &c. as appears by another of their books lately come over from thence, intituled, Some reasons and causes of the late separation, that hath come to pass at Philadelphia, betwixt us, called by some of the seperate meeting, and others that meet apart from us : more particularly opened, to vindicate and clear us and our testimony in that repsect, viz. : that the seperation lieth at their door, and they, and not we, are justly chargeable with it : with an apology for the present publication of these things.

be_v declare_v that_o g._n k.'s_n doctrine_n concern_v christ_n within_o and_o christ_n without_o to_o be_v one_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v true_a and_o that_o therefore_o w._n s._n be_v blame_v worthy_a and_o yet_o after_o all_o this_o w._n s._n persist_v in_o his_o false_a charge_n against_o g._n k._n and_o have_v be_v great_o excuse_v and_o support_v by_o many_o that_o this_o have_v give_v such_o deep_a ground_n of_o offence_n to_o all_o of_o we_o with_o other_o thing_n concur_v that_o because_o to_o this_o day_n nothing_o have_v be_v do_v it_o be_v now_o above_o a_o year_n since_o complaint_n be_v make_v against_o w._n s._n by_o these_o of_o the_o other_o side_n who_o meet_v in_o a_o separation_n from_o we_o either_o to_o bring_v w._n s._n or_o t._n f._n to_o condemnation_n but_o suffer_v they_o to_o continue_v to_o preach_v and_o pray_v in_o their_o meeting_n therefore_o we_o do_v just_o judge_v that_o the_o whole_a meeting_n that_o meet_v in_o a_o separation_n from_o

according_a to_o christ_n command_n record_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v separate_a from_o they_o although_o '_o as_o have_v be_v sufficient_o prove_v they_o begin_v the_o

these_o weighty_a thing_n the_o second_o cause_n of_o the_o separation_n which_o also_o we_o lay_v at_o their_o door_n be_v that_o whereas_o in_o the_o monthly_a meeting_n in_o the_o first_o month_n last_o a_o proposition_n be_v make_v to_o change_v the_o meeting_n both_o at_o the_o centre_n and_o in_o the_o town_n and_o some_o be_v for_o the_o say_a change_n and_o other_o against_o it_o and_o have_v good_a reason_n why_o they_o be_v against_o the_o say_a change_n yet_o a_o party_n in_o the_o meeting_n contrary_a to_o our_o declare_a mind_n and_o assent_n assume_v a_o power_n over_o they_o that_o dissent_v to_o change_v the_o say_a meeting_n a_o thing_n we_o have_v not_o know_v former_o allow_v by_o friend_n any_o where_o in_o their_o monthly_a meeting_n that_o one_o party_n suppose_v equal_a or_o great_a in_o number_n than_o the_o rest_n shall_v assume_v a_o power_n to_o appoint_v or_o change_v place_n and_o time_n of_o meeting_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o their_o brethren_n for_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n especial_o use_v always_o to_o be_v do_v with_o unanimous_a consent_n and_o not_o by_o plurality_n of_o vote_n which_o be_v not_o the_o way_n of_o truth_n and_o because_o we_o be_v not_o free_a to_o stand_v to_o the_o arbitrary_a and_o rash_a determination_n as_o to_o that_o change_n therefore_o we_o meet_v at_o the_o ordinary_a meeting-place_n as_o former_o practise_v and_o they_o begin_v the_o separation_n in_o keep_v a_o public_a meeting_n in_o the_o afternoon_n at_o the_o bank_n contrary_a to_o our_o declare_a sense_n and_o mind_n only_o some_o of_o we_o meet_v at_o a_o private_a family_n meet_v in_o the_o evening_n at_o the_o house_n of_o g._n k._n that_o can_v be_v count_v no_o separate_a meeting_n for_o that_o day_n and_o afterward_o we_o find_v they_o be_v resolve_v to_o continue_v in_o their_o way_n of_o separation_n and_o that_o some_o have_v endeavour_v to_o lock_v we_o out_o from_o meet_v at_o the_o bank_n in_o the_o forenoon_n this_o put_v we_o upon_o seek_v a_o new_a place_n to_o meet_v in_o in_o case_n we_o have_v be_v disappoint_v of_o the_o other_o and_o though_o some_o of_o we_o do_v declare_v our_o sincere_a intention_n and_o sense_n that_o it_o be_v good_a but_o to_o have_v one_o public_a meeting_n on_o first_o day_n to_o end_v about_o the_o second_o hour_n and_o the_o remain_a part_n to_o be_v use_v for_o private_a meeting_n in_o family_n yet_o their_o keep_n up_o their_o public_a afternoon_n meet_v have_v give_v we_o just_a occasion_n at_o present_a to_o have_v a_o public_a afternoon_n meet_v as_o well_o as_o they_o for_o we_o hope_v they_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o cause_n to_o say_v against_o we_o that_o we_o be_v short_a of_o they_o in_o our_o zeal_n for_o good_a meeting_n thing_n be_v thus_o far_o advance_v and_o the_o separation_n be_v begin_v and_o carry_v on_o so_o far_o by_o they_o and_o just_o chargeable_a upon_o they_o some_o of_o they_o have_v desire_v we_o to_o make_v
