Does not affect text. ; "Mary Marshall Dyer...joined forces with an agressive anti-Shaker movement - an informal yet effective group linked together by their disdain of Shakerism and their determination to thwart the new faith.....DeWolfe suggests that while neither Dyer nor the Shakers would agree, the former, a mother without children and a wife without a husband, and the latter, a celibate communal sect that disavowed the marriage bond, share similar positions on the margins of antebellum society.
