Flushing was noted for being a settlement of Friends from its commencement. A clergyman writes, in 1704, of "Newtown and Flushing, famous for being stocked with (Quakers, whither 1 intend to go upon their meeting days, on purpose to preach lectures against their errors. " Another clergyman in a report, the same year 1704, to the Missionary Society for Propagating the Gospel, says: "Flushing is another town in the same county; most of the inhabitants thereof are Quakers, who rove through the cou
...ntry from one village to another, talk blasphemy, corrupt the youth, and do much mischief. " But with a more enlightened age has come a better mutual understanding. All the various denominations, and they are well represented at Flushing, are on excel- lent terms one with another, and each would be more likely to eulogize than blame another for influential position there. The Friends are now a small minority in this neighbourhood, of which they were once the chief inhabitants ; but those that remain are of good intiuence and respectability.
