God parental : or the father and mother spirit manifested in diety ; copied August 1850. 1850-1872.

It is apparent that there were two compilers of this manuscript volume; however, neither is identified. In 1850, the first compiler wrote the initial five pages, which reflect the topic suggested in the title. In 1871 and 1872, another hand recorded letters (and a few poems) written on a variety of subjects to various Shaker communities. Judging from the similar handwritings in this volume and in ASC 799, the second compiler may have been Sophia Niles of the Harvard, Mass. Shaker community.

78 p. ; 20 cm.
