  • Holston Methodism
    HOLSTON METHODISM REV. THOMAS STRINGFIELD. HOLSTON METHODISM FROM ITS ORIGIN TO THE PRESENT TIME. By R. N. PRICE. VOLUME III. From the Year 1824 to the Year 1844. Nashville, Tenn.; Dallas, Tex.: Publishing House of the M. E. Church, South. Smith & Lamar, Agents. 1908. Entered, according to Aet of Congress, in the year 190S, By R. N. Pkice, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. PREFACE. The tardiness with which the successive volumes of this work have been issued has evidently abated somewhat the interest of preachers and people in it; but this tardiness has grown out of circumstances which I have not been able to control. There is more official matter in this volume than in its predecessors, making it a little less racy than the oth- ers; but the official matter used is of considerable historic value. Thus while the volume is heavier than the others as to entertaining qualities, it is also heavier as to historic importance. The chapters on Stringfield, Fulton, Patton, Sevier, Brownlow, and the General Conference of 1844 are chapters of general interest and thrilling import, not on ac- count of ability in the writing, but on account of the in- trinsic value of the matter recorded. I owe my Church an explanation for dwelling so much at length upon the life of Senator Brownlow. It is my busi- ness to record history, not to invent it. A Methodist preach- er who lived as long as Brownlow did, was constantly be- fore the public, took an active part in theological and eccle- siastical controversies, was so gifted and was such a pro- digious laborer, must necessarily have made much history, which could not be ignored by an honest historian.

    Methodist Hist01y, 42:2 (July 2004) DISCOVERY Edited by ROBERT DREW SIMPSON Robert Richford Roberts (1778-1843) - "The Log Cabin" Bishop The United Methodist General Commission on Archives and History possesses a treasure trove of priceless artifacts. Among the most popular items in the collection is George Whitefield's thumb, the original of John Wesley's death mask, and Bishop Francis Asbury's watch, his glasses, and his comb. However, there are many other artifacts which represent the world-wide reach of United Methodism. Personally, I especially delight in artifacts connected with Bishop Robert Roberts, affectionately known as the Log Cabin Bishop. In its vault the Commission holds Roberts' rocking chair (which he inay have made himself), two sets of his saddlebags, and his watch. These items date from the early 1800s. When I see them, I am prompted to remember some of the stories about this unusual circuit- riding bishop. Bishop Roberts was born in Frederick County, Maryland in 1778. His family moved over the mountains to the Ligonier Valley in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. They lived in the woods with little contact with the outside world until a Methodist circuit rider reached their settlement and converted Roberts, his mother, and sister to the Methodist understanding of Christian faith. When he embraced the faith, Roberts was fifteen years old. In 1795, young Roberts moved on to Mercer County, living off the land and sleeping under the trees for shelter. In 1800 he was given a license to preach. What expectation could there possibly be for such a ho1nespun character? But he was immensely successful, and was named Presiding Elder of the Schuylkill District which included Philadelphia.
