Memoir of James Parnell

Excerpt from A Memoir of James Parnell: With Extracts From His Writings The history of James Parnell, (who at the early age of sixteen, was made "an able minister of the Gospel," and when about nineteen, was called to evidence the stability of his faith,, and to seal his testimony to the Truth, by long and painful suffering, even unto death,) cannot but be interesting to the religious Society, which numbers him among the first advocates of its principles, and which has to place Ms name first on the list of its martyrs. His character is already well known to Friends, as being remarkable for youthful dedication faithfulness, zeal, and patient endurance, for the cause of Truth; but hitherto there has not appeared any detailed account of his life.
