Special thanks to Lois Dinshah of Mullica Hill MM for proofreading this issue of Salem Quarter News.
[Our] fleshy part is pleased and nourished, and swells with the praise and commendation of fools; for wise men would not puff up, and we have need of frequent retirement to the gift, the grace in our minds, that in the tranquil, cool hour of the day, not inflated by vain knowledge, or perturbed by passion, we may, in the stillness of all flesh, hear what this Monitor, this good Spirit, this faithful Witness, says to our states. Perhaps when figuratively speaking, all men speak well of us, this heavenly, sure, unerring word of prophecy, which preaches to our own particular states, as individuals, will condemn or reprove us. This is what we are to go by, and to judge and estimate ourselves by; and not by the crude, superficial, hasty, partial judgment of capricious mortals whose favor veers about like the wind.
—Letter of Richard Shakleton to his daughter Mary, 1776
