autobiographical sketch written by Lucetia Mott is taken from the Pendle Hill Pamphlet, "Lucretia Mott Speaking: Excerpts from the Sermons & Speeches of a Famous Nineteenth Century Quaker Minister & Reformer," compiled and edited by Margaret Hope Bacon (Pendle Hill Pamphlet #234, 1980).

Note: Be sure also to investigate Unitarianismism with respect to women & reform since many of the Chase sisters' friends & associates were Unitarians. (Also, check religious affiliation of members of the board of supporting agencies?)
