Excerpt from Mendip Annals: Or, a Narrative of the Charitable Labours of Hannah and Martha More in Their Neighbourhood, Being the Journal of Martha More

Somersetshire, which were then, whatever their position may be now, in a most wild and barbarous condition - some of them scarcely, indeed, safe places for a traveller to pass, much less for unprotected females to be resorting to continually. Yet here it was that these mothers in Israel founded their establishments, setting on foot not schools only for the young, but Scripture readings for the adult part of the population, and well-conducted clubs for the poor women. And all this, too, in the face, not only of discouragement, but often of most determined opposition, on the part of the leading persons in the, parish Even the paro chial ministers, especially at first, afforded them but cold encouragement; and, in one sad instance, not soon to be forgotten, cruel persecution and slanderous defamation were the recompence they met with at the hands of one who should have been the pastor of his village. Nothing but the highest sense of duty could have home them through those stormy waves; Yet home through them they were. Unwearied was their perseverance. There was a Christian heroism in their doings, which the Spirit of power, and of love, and of a sound mind, could alone have breathed into their bosoms. They adventured into places where even stout men feared to follow them. They were oftentimes detained by zeal in the scenes of their exertions till their return home became a night adventure.
