Overview and metadata sections
Appointed in 1896, the Yearly Meeting Teas Committee was invested in organizing the suppers and other catered events at Twelfth Street Meeting during Yearly Meeting week. As the records suggest, the task entailed primarily executing the budget assigned by PYM for this project. The Committee was laid down in 1932.
Records of the Yearly Meeting Teas Committee begin with the group's appointment in 1896 and consist chiefly of the financial records kept by Treasurer J. Henry Scattergood. Records pertaining to duties of the Committee following its discontinuation (1932- 1948) 1948) are among the Miscellaneous Papers.
