Committee of Privileges Subseries, 1790-1838
- Extent:
- 40 items
- Scope and content:
-
Collection of forty broadsides, circular letters, and ephemera that focuses mainly, but not exclusively, on the Committee of Privileges and the controversies that arose in British Methodism in the years following JW's death (1791). All items in this subseries were received from FB as a gift in 1983, along with a full listing, physical description, and commentary on the historical significance of each item. That text is too extensive to be included here in full, but is only quoted at times to clarify the identification or attribution of certain items; however, a full copy of FB's description and commentary is in the information folder at the beginning of the subseries. Arranged as received FB, generally in alphabetical order by main entry.
