Notes

Anti-Shaker pamphlet claiming sect enticed women to flee from their husbands, as Smith's had, to join the sect's communities, only to be subjected to torturous conditions there. Another edition of this pamphlet was published in Abingdon this same year by John G. Ustick (1811.052); both reprint the original edition published in Paris, Kentucky, in 1810.
