The people in the western part of this state, who stile
themselves Shaking-Quakers, and who suppose they, and they
only, have discovered the true mode of worship, have of late
(it is said) utterly disclaimed the use of any kind of
garment when engaged in their religious exercises;
presenting themselves unpolluted by the vain and unchristian
articles of dress, and performing all their dancing,
turnings, jumpings, tumblings, twistings and wrigglings, in
that condition.
