John Woolman is an admirable fellow, a Quaker traveling around the Eastern parts of colonial America to attend meetings, preach the good word, and be a general, pretty good fellow. He's also against slavery and refuses, early on in the journal, to help write contracts to begin, continue, or pass on slave contracts. He changes some Quakers' minds in his good-hearted, Christian refusal.
But I'm not sticking around for any more of the meeting to meeting to meeting to anecdote to meeting excitement.
I'll be leaving this one in medias res, if you can CALL it res, and moving on to the third part of the first volume of the Harvard Classics: William Penn's Some Fruits of Solitude.
