866. Dr. J. Prescott to Gideon White. Friendly and personal. He deplores the many feuds to which Shelburne seems fated. "For the sake of many others as well as yourself I hope…that ere long a more benign planet will influence your concerns, and that I shall have the satisfaction to hear that peace and harmony are restored to your (at present) discordant Community. I do assure you that the mortification I experienced from seeing half a dozen execrable fools and Rascals carrying every point induced me to quit you, more than any other consideration." Holograph.
