| Summary | "Journal of the Life and Religious Labours of Elias Hicks" by Elias Hicks is a personal memoir written in the early 19th century. The work chronicles the life, spiritual journey, and ministry of Elias Hicks, a prominent figure in the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). It reflects on his experiences, trials, and insights gained through his commitment to his faith and community. At the start of the memoir, Hicks introduces his life, beginning with his birth in 1748 and describing his early influences and spiritual experiences that shaped his character. He shares formative moments, including the challenges he faced during his apprenticeship and the temptations that arose from various influences around him. His narrative reveals not only his struggles with vanity and social distractions but also his eventual commitment to a life of service and religious dedication, which is marked by his later travels and speaking engagements within the Quaker community and beyond. The opening portion sets a reflective and contemplative tone, indicating that the memoir will delve deeply into Hicks's spiritual convictions and his efforts to promote peace and righteousness throughout his life.
