cites some distinguished names allow me- per contra to
quote from the memorials Of his own times, by Henry

like classical learning grammaticaly expressed and

MARRIAGE AMONG THE SHAKERS.

an article containing comments certain remarks Of
mine at the Boston Convention OF the 2th u Ny object
in addressing you this time is TO ask TO correct an
statement in the article referred to- You say,
Elder Cummings thinks nobody should be married and
no more children should be born into the world" Tho
above is entirely erroneous. both regards my own
belief and also regards the society OF which
our Savior and His Disciples, In this matter as In all
other respects and what they teach as We understand
g. is that orders, systems, king
doms-the natural order, Old Creation, in which
the generatve principle is the element power
OF life, without which 10 could not exist !;
and the other the spiritual order, or New Crea-
uon rising ont OF the other, yet distinct from
H. as much as second story OF house is above and
distinct the first lower story As the Old Creation
the generatiye principle for its element so the New
Creation has the regeneratye or spiritual life principle
for its element. ,
What we believe Is that he that marries doeth wel

marreth doeth better so be he remaineh IN that
condition in obedience the call Of God through Christ
