Mindful of Caspar's importance as the grogs' principle trainer, William hinted to Floristan that it might be a good idea to forbid the man to risk himself in the contest, but Floristan did not seem to think it important.
Caspar survived unharmed and acquitted himself rather well, though not well enough to win Abel his bet; the wrestling was more ceremonial than serious, as it turned out, but that does not excuse Floristan.

Caspar encountered difficulties under Pope Leo XII; but these were cleared up and, in 1824, the houses of the congregation were opened to young clergy who wished to be trained specially as missioners.
Saint Caspar's missionary methods were dramatic in a high degree: the contemporary Saint Vincent Strambi said of his preaching that it was 'like a spiritual earthquake.' Indeed, some of the methods his missioners used were dramatic: they flagellated themselves in the public square, which always resulted in many conversions.

Friedrich Gottfried Abel (8 July 1714–23 November 1794) was a German physician, and the son of historian Caspar Abel.
After a classical education at Halberstadt and Wolfenbuttle, Abel entered himself at the former place as a student of theology, in 1731, under Johann Lorenz von Mosheim; a year later, he moved to Halle, where he attended the lectures of Christian Wolff and Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten, and often preached himself with much applause.

Caspar explained that he had been sent along with Zane and Alain, but that he was now alone - despite the precaution of holding hands as they entered, perhaps only he had been transported?
He confessed to having watched their progress past various Bandits (as he described them) and suggested they might appreciate being guided past such in the future, and that he himself was a certain source of useful detours.

 TIME.com: Shrouding Space in Secrecy -- Dec. 31, 1984 -- Page 1
For the first time in 45 U.S. manned space flights, reporters will not be supplied with the usual fact-stuffed press kits, or allowed to eavesdrop on communications between astronauts and Mission Control, or even permitted to follow the traditional countdown.
At a crowded press conference in Washington last week, Brigadier General Richard Abel, public affairs director for the Air Force, announced a new set of restrictions on press coverage of manned space shuttle flights carrying purely military payloads.
The aim of the new rules, declared General Abel, is to "deny our adversaries"—i.e., the Soviets—information about the shuttle launch and its payload.

 City Pages - Mpls./St. Paul International Film Festival Week II: See No Daylight
In German, to say "he licked blood" means "he got a taste for it," and so when co-writer-director Volker Schlöndorff's young protagonist puts his tongue to a buddy's injured knee, we know that something has been set in motion.
Abel, who loves "nothing more than the young boys," ends up assigned to a castle populated by hundreds of blond, blue-eyed adolescents, along with a couple of Nazi archetypes, a forlorn count (Armin Müller-Stahl), and a housekeeper (Marianne Sägebrecht).
By the end, we, like Abel, wonder where we crossed the line between naiveté and complicity, whether fate is real or just a copout, and whether redemption is anything but a cruel hoax.

 Circumstantial evidence and a Hypothesis
If we assume Jeremias's son, Abraham, is father of Charlotte, John, Abigail, and Barsheba, and if Abraham's wife, Mercy, died before the 1790 Census, it is reasonable that a widower might choose to raise his motherless children near his widowed sister.
I believe the Abraham living in Mt. Pleasant in 1790 is the widower Abraham Mabee (Jeremias3, Caspar Pieterszen2, Pieter Gaspard (or Caspar) Mabie1 Van Naerden).
Since PRIME Abraham (Jeremias3, Caspar Pieterszen2, Pieter Gaspard (or Caspar) Mabie1 Van Naerden) remained in NY when the Loyalist members of his family moved to Canada, I assume he was not a Loyalist.
