As you make those commitments, I sincerely hope that you will consider making a generous gift to the Star Gospel Mission, Charleston’s oldest not-for-profit Christian welfare organization, circa 1904. For over 108 years we have been serving the homeless and needy throughout this community in a very significant way, by assisting them with housing, food, clothing, rent, utilities assistance, emergency medical and transportation needs, and a wide array of other services. Please note that the Mission is a 501c3 organization and all contributions are tax deductible. Also note that we do not receive any monies from the local, state or federal government! Your generosity will help transform the lives of men who are in need of a second chance and a brand new beginning. Our thanks to you in advance of your generous gift! Always remember that the giver is the primary beneficiary of the gift. Faithfully yours, The Rev. William K.

    The American Reformation: The Politics of Religious Liberty, Charleston and New York 1770-1830 by Susanna Christine Linsley A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Professor Susan M Juster, Chair Professor David J. Hancock Professor Mary C. Kelley Associate Professor Mika Lavaque-Manty Assistant Professor Daniel Ramirez © Susanna Christine Linsley 2012 Acknowledgements During one of the more challenging points in the beginning stages of the dissertation project, my advisor, Sue Juster, gave me some advice that I continue to refer to when I find myself in need of guidance. She told me that there was no secret to getting back on track. I just needed to allow myself to take some time and remember why I loved history. This observation was one of the many sage and trenchant insights Sue has offered me throughout graduate school. I cannot thank her enough for providing both such a practical and an inspiring model for scholarship. I have also been fortunate to work with a committee whose brilliance and wisdom is unmatched. Mary Kelley has been a constant source of support throughout my time in Ann Arbor. Her unfailing trust in me and in my project gave me the confidence to push my work in directions I would not have thought possible before I began. David Hancock has always asked good questions, spurring me to think deeply both about context and about broader sets of connections. His own rigorous scholarship and teaching have served as great examples to me.

Even though it has been included in numerous publications devoted to the history of religion in early South Carolina, this church has never been systematically recorded nor has its role been thoroughly explored.
