EOF05A The Eye of Faith, A History of Ohio Yearly Meeting Conservative. Chapter 5 Part A, The Flowering of Wilburite Culture

A turning point in 1874 becomes a season of rebuilding, wider correspondence, and confident witness among conservative Friends, culminating in shared fundamentals and a stronger print and school culture. We trace how harmony, service, and publishing shaped a subculture that held firm as modern pressures rose. • relocation to Barnesville and renewed harmony • conservative separations forming new yearly meetings • circle of correspondence and tendered epistles • Philadelphia ties in funds, visitors and publications • tract associations, libraries and home reading • Indian concerns and service at Tunesassa • expanding memorials, journals and peace pamphlets • 1911–1913 synopsis of conservative principles • the Great War’s pressure on a rural subculture A complete list of our podcasts, organized into topics, is available on our website. We will be publishing video interviews with Conservative Friends on YouTube. See our YouTube channel. The first interview is with Susan Smith.
