A complaint having been made to this meeting that the children of Abraham Clement are not placed out to the satisfaction of Friends, it is the mind of this meeting that the Friends formerly appointed do take care to speak with Samuel Carpenter and Benjamin Collins about them, and make report to next meeting.[349] A similar one of 1714 points out the continued interest and attention in that respect.

It was the practice for the youths’ meetings to be established by the quarterly meetings, in conjunction with representatives of the monthly meetings. In 1713, Bucks Quarterly took up the re-establishment of those within their limits, and ordered them accordingly, as the following extract states.

We may be certain, however, that there was a school in the neighborhood at a very early date, though we can hardly determine the year. In 1730 the following request was made of the meeting: Some Friends of Falls Meeting requested to have the use of the old schoolhouse, and it wanting repairing, they would repair it at their own charge, which is left to be considered at next meeting.[352] [Sidenote: Contradiction in the minutes of Falls]
