He was born lived and died in Whitpain close to Gwynedd and for many years he was one of the most conspicuous figures in the farming business and social circles of Gwynedd. He did much to improve the methods of farming planted hedges introduced the feeding of green fodder to cattle instead of grazing built a barn which was enormously large according to the usual standard and very early introduced the use of gypsum on fields. He was one of the first in Pennsylvania to introduce and breed Merino sheep and during the movement to establish the manufacture of silk he was one of its most zealous promoters. In 1791 Gov. Mifflin appointed him a justice of the peace and he continued as such until 1820 when he resigned and returned to farming and other entreprenureal pursuits. S&S/AI 7203; Sabin 71898; Rink 1148.

184654235Boston: Thomas H. Webb & Co 1846. First edition 8vo pp. 176; original printed wrappers backed with red cloth at an early date manuscript paper label on spine; wrappers lightly soiled and worn with minor loss to back wrap; a few corners creased and curled but text generally clean. A good sound copy. A work of Emersonian pantheism by the Chief Judge of the Rhode Island Supreme Court who presided over the Dorr trials. In an earlier work The Influence of Scientific Discovery and Invention on Social and Political Progress 1843 Durfee believed that he had found in the advent of steam power a sign of divine intervention indicating a "law of progress" in man's development. Panidea adumbrates this theme: all is eventually assimilated into the "Theanthropoid" Durfee's term for the Divine Mind. See Schneider History of American Philosophy. DAB offers a concise assessment: "a somewhat pretentious philosophical work which nobody read." American Imprints 2262. <br/><br/> Thomas H. Webb & Co hardcover books

184355252Providence: B. Cranston and Company 1843. First edition 8vo pp. 52; removed from binding wrappers wanting; very good. Durfee here propounds the theory that "the recent revolutionary development of steam power was not merely an instance of man making progress it was a revelation of the divine 'law of progress' and of a 'higher destiny' planned by God himself for the new age" Schneider History of American Philosophy. These ideas were adumbrated by Durfee in The Panidea; Or An Omnipresent Reason Considered as the Creative and Sustaining Logos 1846 "a pretentious work that nobody read" DAB. More charitable comments are made by Joseph Blau in his collection of American Philosophic Addresses 1700 to 1900 page 381 ff where the Oration is reprinted in full. An important aspect of Durfee's deterministic theory of history is that "there is no absolute undefinable popular sovereignty which can in a manner its own and at any moment carry a certain supposed natural equality into social and political life and thereby elevate poor human nature however rude and degraded in condition at once as by a sort of magic into a state of supreme and absolute perfection" quoted by Blau. This is because the advances of science and technology impose conditions upon society which democracy cannot control and to which it must adapt. Blau notes that Durfee's views were influenced by German transcendentalism as mediated by Coleridge and Cousin. Not surprisingly given his skepticism on the efficacy of popular sovereignty Durfee as Chief Justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court played a prominent role in opposition to the Dorr forces.
