Very rare early Free Methodist Discipline, of the emerging holiness branch of the Methodist revivalist movement. It contains early iterations of their holiness teachings, i.e. the forbidding of any gold being worn, including wedding rings, an ongoing resistance to the ownership of slaves which was effectively still happening in terms of practice, etc., No other examples in the trade.
