Excerpt from Daniel Wheeler, Vol. 6Feeling, like the early Christians, that war and Christianity were utterly opposed to each other, he resolved at once to leave the army, and did so in the early part of 1796.When the Wheeler family was scattered, Daniel's sister Barbara went to live with her guardian, a clergyman, on the borders of Yorkshire and Derbyshire, where she met and married William Hoyland, a Friend of Woodhouse.* According to the rules of the Society of Friends at that. Time, and for long afterwards, marriage with an adherent of any other Church cost the Friend his membership. 80 William Hoyland was disowned. In many cases this resulted in the total alienation of the disowned ones and' their families from the Society. With William Hoyland it was not so and, in course of time, both husband and wife became Friends.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
