Enoch Lewis (1776-1856) was a Pennsylvania Quaker and a mathematician who edited several mathematical works and published several textbooks, including one on spherical projections. He was an abolitionist, establishing the monthly journal African Observer and taking an active role in the Underground Railroad in Chester County, Pa. In this pamphlet he examines another issue of concern to the Society of Friends, that of legal and judicial oaths, which Friends refused to take. Very scarce.
