Whereas Sarah Titus Daughter of Jacob Thorn having had a birth right among friends but not taking heed … guilty of fornication which is manifest by her having a child soon after Marriage and married not according to the good Order used among friends … we do hereby testify against her said misconduct and disown her from being any longer a member of our Society until by sincere repentance … She shall make Satisfaction to our Monthly Meeting …
