acknowledgments

This volume would be impossible without the generosity of the institutions


that possess Penry’s letters: the Rhayader Museum and the National Library
of Wales, the Moravian Archives in Bethlehem and in Winston-Salem, the
Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Library Company of Philadelphia,
the Jacobsburg Historical Society, the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book and
Manuscript Library at Duke University, the Joseph Downs Collection of
Manuscripts and Printed Ephemera at Winterthur, and Linden Hall in
Lititz. At Linden Hall, archivist Joey Yocum and assistant archivist Kate
Yeager were especially generous with their time, as were four volunteers at
the Lititz Moravian Church Archives: Marian Shatto, Tom Wentzel, Nancy
Sandercox, and Bob Sandercox. I wish Bob could see this volume.
Invitations to present the Moravian Historical Society’s Annual Meeting
Lecture in 2012 and the Jeanette Barres Zug Lecture in 2014 provided oppor-
tunities to talk about Mary Penry to engaged audiences who asked superb
questions. Those lectures appeared in the Journal of Moravian History and in
The Hinge, and I thank the editors of both publications for letting me use
previously published material in the introduction to this volume.
I am grateful to Edward Quinter for translating material for this volume;
to Monica Najar, Linda Yankaskas, and Jeremy Zallen for critiquing a draft
of the introduction; to Jennifer Lewis for digging in Welsh records for infor-
mation about Penry’s genealogy; to Louise Benson James for touring me
around Wales on a beautiful spring Friday; to Lehigh University’s Lawrence
Henry Gipson Institute for Eighteenth-Century Studies for financial sup-
port; to the readers for Pennsylvania State University Press, whose sugges-
tions have improved this volume substantially; and to Kathryn Yahner of
Pennsylvania State University Press, with whom it has been a true pleasure
to work.
I thank Katie Faull, Dashielle Horn, Dawn Keetley, Jeffrey Long, Seth
Moglen, Monica Najar, Christina Petterson, Heather Reinert, Megan van
Ravenswaay, and Lanie Yaswinksi for conversations over many years that
helped shape this volume. I owe profound debts to Craig Atwood, who urged
me to submit this manuscript to the series he edits; to Tom McCullough,

19140-Gordon_Letters.indd xi 5/1/18 3:59 PM


xii acknowledgments

assistant archivist at the Moravian Archives in Bethlehem, who helped me in


more ways and more often than I can recall; and especially to Paul Peucker,
the archivist in Bethlehem, who supported this project at every stage of its
life, when it was new and when (I imagine) it began to seem old. Nobody
endured more conversations about this project than did James Dinh. For his
encouragement—in all things—I am very lucky.
My parents, Lois Gordon (1927–2016) and Melvin Gordon (1925–2014),
did not live to see this volume in print. Both offered, for fifty years, unquali-
fied support and encouragement in whatever I chose to do. I dedicate this
volume, with love and gratitude, to them.

editorial note

This volume includes all the surviving letters by Mary Penry that are known
to me, except eight business letters related to the single sisters’ textile indus-
try. Appendix D prints one of these letters and identifies the others’ loca-
tions. This volume does not print letters (in Penry’s hand) that she wrote for
others; it does not print the diary of the Lititz single sisters’ choir that Penry
kept from 1762 to 1804; and it does not print the financial accounts she pro-
duced each year.
All the texts printed in this volume, except Letters 9 and 10 and Penry’s
memoir (lebenslauf; see Appendix A), were written in English. These three
exceptions were written in German. Unlike most eighteenth-century Mora-
vians, however, Penry did not use German script (Kurrentschrift); she used
Latin script, as she did when she wrote in English. For these three German-
language texts, I have provided English translations and, immediately follow-
ing, transcriptions of the originals.
At the top of each letter, I identify the addressee, the letter’s date, and the
place it was written. Penry’s date and location, which she sometimes placed at
the letter’s top and sometimes at its bottom, I have placed at the top of the
letter flush with the right margin. I have placed Penry’s salutation flush with
the left margin and her signature flush with the right margin. I have placed
elements of her farewell flush with the right margin only when she has clearly
separated that element from the sentence of which it is part. An unnumbered
note at the bottom of each letter identifies the collection that contains the
letter and the form of the source text: ALS (autograph letter signed by
Penry), Copy (contemporary manuscript copy, with the copyist identified
when possible), Printed Copy (document transcribed from a printed source),
or Typed Copy (document transcribed from a typescript when the original
manuscript no longer exists). This note also reports on other marks on the
letter (e.g., the address, the endorsement) and any information about its
delivery.
Even the most conservative transcription, determined to be faithful to the
original manuscript, changes that manuscript by rendering it in print. I have
not reproduced Penry’s line breaks, and I have regularized the indentation of

19140-Gordon_Letters.indd xv 5/1/18 3:59 PM


xvi editorial note

her paragraphs. Penry often did not use a period to end a sentence if that
sentence concluded at the end of a line; she often used an uppercase letter at
the start of a line even when a new sentence had not begun; and she often
omitted a period in the middle of a line, leaving variable-sized spaces where
one sentence ended and another began. It would be impossible to reproduce
such features without reproducing Penry’s line breaks, and there is no good
reason to attempt to do so. Therefore, I have added punctuation at the end of
sentences and removed the uppercase letters that appear at the start of a new
line. I have added such end punctuation sparingly to preserve Penry’s ten-
dency to string related sentences and phrases together with commas and her
fondness for punctuating with dashes (though I have regularized these as em
dashes).
Penry’s handwriting was clear throughout her life. Her words are rarely
difficult to decipher, except when the manuscript itself is damaged. There are
remarkably few cancelled words or interlinear insertions. I have preserved
Penry’s spelling except on very rare occasions, and in such cases I have placed
my emendations in brackets. I have marked the places where damage to the
text has left words impossible to recover with “[missing]” and, for those spots
where I could not make out a word, “[illegible].” When missing words, how-
ever, could be easily reconstructed, I have placed my reconstruction within
brackets. Where Penry underlined a word, I have substituted italics. I have
also expanded abbreviations and superscripts (e.g., “Br” becomes “Brother,”
