Abstract

This broadside reprints the letter that the Quakers in London wrote to King George I, followed by his brief reply. In their letter, they praised his justice and clemency, assured him of their loyalty and obedience, and expressed their sorrow over the ungrateful men of the recent rebellion. King George responded with a single sentence of appreciation.
