Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal of John Mair, 1791, Vol. 12
I expected to have found greater simplicity of manners and dress than I did, but now the Quakers alone seem to retain it. All the other inhabitants are as gay and dissipated as in London, and the abode of the Congress has introduc'd all kinds of luxury, they have plays, balls, Concerts etc, and the Routs at different houses vie with St. James's.
