Preface
The Sketches herein presented were written in 1902, the Semi-Centennial year
of Congregational Methodism.They appear in The Watchman as found here and
proved to be of interest not only to Congregational Methodist, but to others
interested in holy character and the developments of Church history.In
response to a demand, we put these sketches in this more permanent form,
trusting they may be helpful to every reader.In a subsequent booklet we hope to
dwell more fully upon the principles for which these noble and distinguished men
stood so heroically.The twelve who met together in 1852 to inaugurate the
Congregational Methodist Church, we add a few who were prominent in helping
to develop the polity of the denomination.THE AUTHOR
