{"product_id":"2940000778821","title":"The Record of a Quaker Conscience","description":"The body of The Record of a Quaker Conscience consists of the personal diary of a young Quaker named Cyrus Guernsey Pringle of Charlotte, Vermont. He was drafted for service in the Union Army, July 13th, 1863. Under the existing draft law a person who had religious scruples against engaging in war was given the privilege of paying a commutation fine of three hundred dollars. This commutation money Pringle's conscience would not allow him to pay. A prosperous uncle proposed to pay it surreptitiously for him, but the honest-minded youth discovered the plan and refused to accept the well meant kindness, since he believed, no doubt rightly, that this money would be used to pay for an army substitute in his place.","brand":"B\u0026R Samizdat Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47172668063984,"sku":"2940000778821","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940000778821_p0.jpg?v=1763545595","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940000778821","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
