241092 April 1892. On letterhead of Wentworth Studios Manresa Road Kings Road S.W. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition lightly aged and creased. Signed ‘Frank Short’. The salutation is unclear: it appears to be to ‘Dear Mist Gosselin’ but it could be ‘Mirst’ or ‘Urist’ Gosselin. He thanks him for his kind note ‘but it wasn’t really of any importance about that bell. Don’t trouble any more about it as far as I am concered. It only wants a very tiny bell and I can easily put one up myself some day.’ When Gosselin is ‘round our way’ he invites him to ‘look in and see your old Studio: but I fear it will rather shock you - all its daintiness gone and all that remains a grim workshop - but very useful & convenient withal’. He ends with sympathy for Gosselin’s indisposition: ‘it is not very healthy weather - I’ve got a wretched cold’. 2 April 1892. On letterhead of Wentworth Studios, Manresa Road, Kings Road, S.W. unknown

In this travelogue and account of American Quaker practice Scott recounts how he traveled from his home in Rhode Island to congregations of Friends throughout the United States in 1779.

His diary is divided between his soul-searching and specific accounts of his experiences at various meetings.
