Excerpt from The Life of the Rt. Hon. John Edward Ellis M. P One can hardly describe him better than by taking him as an example of the finest and most Strongly marked lineaments of the type of character I have referred to as produced within the Society of Friends. Among the notable features of that type was an unswerving loyalty to duty. Duty presented itself in the form of a body of certain definite principles of absolute obligation. The principles were definite and absolute because they were not taken from the concrete nor based upon the general practice of mankind, but were directly drawn from the Divine law as laid down in Scripture.

It is sufficient to note how they were applied in the field of public afl'airs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
