Extract from the Minutes of the Yearly Meeting
held in Baltimore

, 10th Mo. 1805.

A Report from our Committee on Indian
concerns

was produced, which being read and
considered, much satisfaction with their pro-
ceding was expressed: inasmuch as it very
evidently appears that considerable benefits to
our Red Brethren have already resulted, since
the care of the Yearly Meeting towards them.
The Committee were encouraged to continue
such exertions, in the prosecution of this im-
portent concern, as may be in their power to
extend: they were also left at liberty to have
printed, for the more general information of
Friends, as many copies of their report, con-
nected with a narrative of their previous pro-
ceedings, as they apprehend may be usefully
distributed amongst our members.
