  • The History of Claremont School of Theology at Willamette University
    Our Story: The History of Claremont School of Theology at Willamette University Introduction: Our story begins in central Pennsylvania beginning around 1822 with the birth of 5 five sons and four daughters to Northern Ireland immigrants, Robert P. and Arabella Maclay. All 5 sons grew up to become circuit rider ministers in, what was then, the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Their father taught them trades so they wouldn’t be a burden on the communities they served.12 Two of the brothers and a son of their sister Arabella, were foundational to our earliest beginnings, shaped the path of values we still honor today and changed the landscape of various parts of California as well. In the late 1940s, when California was called Alta California and was part of Mexico, with Pio de Jesús Pico as the governor, the Maclay brothers left their circuit riding ministries in Pennsylvania to engage in missionary work in China and California. Later, 2 nephews joined them.3 In 1850, California became a state and the population of Los Angeles was 1,610.4 The Maclay Legacy: Robert Samuel Maclay We begin the Maclay part of our story with Robert Samuel Maclay. In 1847 when the Methodist denomination was splitting up over the issue of slavery, Robert Samuel Maclay was sent to Fuzhou, China, where he established a Methodist Episcopal Mission which he served for 24 years.5 He didn’t have a single convert for 10 years but he learned the Fuzhou dialect and translated the New Testament for the people.

London : 21 Paternoster Square Edinburgh : 100 Princes Street TO HIS BELOVED REBECCA PREFACE is with no little hesitation that I let this inade- ITquate biography of Bishop McCabe go to the pub- lic. Yielding to the request made by friends, whose kind partiality may have obscured their judg- ment as to my fitness for such a task, I undertook a work the demands and difficulties of which soon embarrassed me. Bishop McCabe! Who of us did not know, or think we knew, this unique and glori- ous man? But he has been growing on us since he passed from our company and we have been study- ing anew his great life-work. We begin to see how large he was by the vacancy which his death has made in the ranks of our foremost leaders.
