Subject: [Q-R] "Quaker Language in 1773 Will?
Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2000 08:24:17 -0700 (PDT)


Hi, listers. Maybe you can help. I just received a copy of my Quaker
ancestor's will (1773), and there doesn't seem to be anything especially
Quaker about the language, no mention of Friends, no "thee" or "thou." Was
I mistaken to have expected this? Should I attach any meaning to it?
Thank you,
Anne Lieberman
