Aliens from the Sheepfold

I've often wondered what neighboring villages and farmers thought of the society of Shakers at Pleasant Hill. I found one reference while researching a different branch of the family who lived in Garrard County, southeast of Mercer County. It comes from "The song of Lancaster, Kentucky, To the statesmen, soldiers, and citizens of Garrard county," written by Eugenia Dunlap Potts in 1874.
