A Collection of hymns and spiritual songs : composed by the Millennial Church / copied by Mary Hazard. 1832-1868.

Manuscript volume was assembled by more than one recorder. On the final page, one of them wrote: "This is the most valuable compend of Shakers written hymns within the dates -32 to -68 that I could find in the little collection at the Chh. library at N. Le. Among those seen were Isaac N. Youngs whose book I examined closely and Henry DeWitt's, but neither were as complete in number nor did they pay much attention to authors or place of origin. Their music must have been correct as they were teacher of music."
