Abstract

Refers to Yearly Meeting attended by Kite and the understanding that both Wilburite and Gurneyite factions work toward Truth. However, there are many "absurd" claims made by John Wilbur which their Meeting cannot support. Nathan Douglas had not agreed with Gurneyites, but then renounced his previous Wilburite position.
