Abstract

Transcription of a May 25, 1818, manuscript in the Hamilton College Library titled “A Statement Concerning the Mob at Enfield.” The manuscript records the Shakers’ account of the five-day mob, one of two lengthy Shaker recollections of this volatile event. Although written in the present tense, the document is retrospective and written after the conclusion of the mob, likely as part of the legal proceedings that followed.
