1765 HENRY SCOUGAL. Puritan Works with 18th Century "Methodist" Georgia Slave Plantation Provenance. Adventist though solidA rather nicely preserved example of the works of the young puritan, Henry Scougal [1650 1678]. He was influential in the 17th century, but was brought into prominence during the Great Awakening by John Wesley, who issued an edition of his justly famed Life of God in the Soul of Man. And this connection plays into the story of this particular example, which bears the signature of 18th century Georgia Plantation owner, James Couper of Hamilton
