   to the monthly meeting condemming or acknowledging          a Wrong doing the meeting would (or would not) accept       it.



acc   accomplish (ed)

   Used ordinarily when the committee having the care
   of a marriage would report back to the monthly meeting
   that it"had been orderly accomplished"



altm   at liberty to marry
 
                  
   When a couple would announce at monthly meeting             their intention of marriage, a committee was  
   appointed to investigate "their clearness  and              report back to the next monthly meeting, after              which  time couple were "left at liberty to marry"



apd   attending places of diversion

   "Friends are fervently exhorted to watch carefully           over (members) to prevent them . . . from frequenting       stage -plays, horse-races, music,dancing, and other         vain sports and amusements; also,in a particular            manner, from being concerned in lotteries, wagering,        or any kind of gaming; it being abundantly obvious,
    that those practices have a tendency to alienate
    the mind from the counsel of divine wisdom . .. If . .      . any of our members  fall into either of these             practices. . . and cannot be reclaimed by futher 
    labour (The Monthly Meeting) should proceed to               disown them."Discipline(1819)

   "It is the judgement of the yearly Meeting, that
   offenders, whether under dealing, or disowned, who
   incline to make acknowledgement of their offences,
   shall prepare the same in writing; which ought to
   be shewn; if under dealing, to the committee
   appointed in their case;  or if disowned, to the
   oveseeres. And if the purport is judged to be
   suitable to the occasion, the party may present it
   to the Monthly Meeting, and stay till it is read;
   and after time given for a solid pause, should              withdraw before either that, or any other business, 
   is proceded upon. The meeting is then to concider the       case, and appoint two or more Friends to inform the
   party of the result" Discipline (1819)

    hands, to the satisfaction of the Monthly Meetings,         to which  they belong. And if any such offenders            refuse so to acknowledge and condemn their faults,          the said  meetings, ought speedily to testify               against them" Discipline (1819)

 
dp      deviation from plainness of dress and address

 
      "Upon the first of these subjects, our                      principle is, to let decency, simplicity                    and utility be our principal motives and not                to conform to the vain and changeable fashions
       . . of the world. . ."In our address also, we             are bound to differ from the world in several               respects; such a our using the singular number              in speaking to a single person; our disuse of               the appellation, of Master, Mistress, &c. . .               and our calling the months and days of the
       week by their numerical names, instead of                   those which are derived from  the heathen 
       dieties."Dicipline (1819)

        making the usual inquiry, and finding no
