Edition Notes
Evans 8542
First edition, 1759.
The uncertainity of a death-bed repentance, illustrated under the character of Penitens: p. [12]-16.
"Benezet...of a French family of St. Quentin, was driven from France by the revocation of the edict of Nantes. Having fixed his residence in Philadelphia, he adopted the doctrine of the Quakers. His humanity impelled him to attempt an amelioration of the condition of both the Indians and Negroes,by publishing treaties exhibiting the unhappy state to which each had been reduced by the cupidity and neglect of the whites."--Field, Indian bibliography. cf. also A.S. Bolles, Pennsylvania, province and state, 1899, v.2, 447-448.
