id 236 firstname Br. John lastname Pine birthyr 1875 bio Pine, Br. John, was born in 1875. Originally a Shirley Shaker for a brief time, he joined the Sabbath day Lake, ME, Shakers and worked with Br. Delmer Wilson, going to the pond to cut ice, taking cream to factory, working in the shop, planing and hauling wood. Br. Delmer wrote about him: "Sunday, Feb.14, 1904, J. P. spoke [at meeting], he has several times lately. I trust he is taking deep root in this home and religion." He transferred however to Canterbury, NH, in 1908, and soon left the Shakers.
