Summary "The Annual Monitor for 1851" by Anonymous is a commemorative publication written in the mid-19th century. This work serves as an obituary and remembrance of the members of the Society of Friends (Quakers) in Great Britain and Ireland who passed away during the year 1850. It highlights the lives, virtues, and contributions of deceased members, reflecting on their experiences and the principles of their faith. The opening of the text introduces the reader to the context of the annual mortality report, noting a decline in the number of deaths among Friends, which raises questions about the Society's membership trends. It discusses the reasons for the diminishing size of the Society, including the impact of members marrying outside the faith and overall birth and mortality trends. The text emphasizes themes of faith, perseverance, and the spiritual journey of individuals, as demonstrated by various personal narratives and reflections of the deceased Friends, underlining the importance of readiness for the afterlife and living in accordance with divine truths.
