The preliminary movements toward the celebration of the Five Hundredth Anniver- sary of the translation of the Bible into the English language by John Wycliffe, which was completed in the year of our Lord, 1380, are carefully narrated in the statement by the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Origin and Object of the Convention, whose proceedings are contained in this memorial volume. A few facts remain to be stated concerning the Conference, which was held in Trenton, in the rooms of the Board of Trade, February 25, 1880. Sixteen out of the twenty-one county auxiliary Bible Societies in the State of New Jersey were represented as follows Atlantic County Bible Society, Rev. Thomas Sovreign. Essex County Bible Society, Rev. W. J. R. Taylor, D.D. Hudson County Bible Society, Rev. Paul D. Van Cleef, D.D. ; Rev. Lewis R. Dunn, D.D. Hunterdon County Bible Society, Rev. George S. Mott, D.D, Mercer County Bible Society, Rev. Samuel M. Hamill, D.D. ; Rev. William Harris, Rev. Walter A. Brooks, Rev. James B. Kennedy, Rev. S. Van Benschoten, D.D. Rev. Jesse Stiles, James C. De Cou, Esq. Ocean County Bible Society, S. F. Blackman, Esq. Passaic County Bible Society, Rev. Marshall B. Smith. Somerset County Bible Society, Rev. Philip M. Doolittle. Sussex County Bible Society, William P. Nicholas, Esq. Warren County Bible Society, Rev. William A. Holliday. Rev. George Sheldon, D.D., State Superintendent of the American Bible Society for New Jersey and Delaware, was present ex-officio. THE CONVENTION. By the courtesy of the authorities, the Assembly Chamber, with its adjacent rooms, in the State House at Trenton, was opened for the Convention—a graceful acknowledg- ment of the public sentiment of the good people of New Jersey, who value the Bible as the foundation of their liberties and rights. During all of the sessions the floor of the Assembly Chamber was occupied by the delegates, and a large number of ladies and gentlemen filled the spacious galleries. The pulpit, the bar, the medical profession, the judiciary of the State and of the United States, presidents and professors of colleges and theological seminaries, prominent officers of churches of all the leading Protestant communions, the American and Pennsylvania Bible Societies, and the New Jersey auxiliaries of the parent institution, the religious and sec- ular press, the worthy yeomanry, statesmen, and all the influential classes in the State were represented in this notable assembly of the friends of the Bible. The programme was carried out with remarkable exactness, no speaker or reader exceeding the half hour to which the Executive Committee was compelled to limit them. Much credit is due to the Local Committee of Arrangements, whose minute carefulness and forethought greatly pro- moted the comfort and convenience of the Convention, as well as the promptness of the proceedings. The expenses have been met by special contributions from friends in the Auxiliary Societies, and without diverting a dollar from their ordinary receipts for Bible purposes. The music was admirably led by a double quartette from Princeton College, repre- senting the Nassau Hall Bible Society. Public interest increased until the last moments of the Convention, and the impres- sion made by its proceedings was most happy upon all who were present. —— — — PRESIDING OFFICERS. CHARLES E.

The Convention was called to order by the Rev. James P. Wilson, D.D., Chairman of the Executive Committee. In the absence of Cortlandt Parker, Esq., of Newark, whose attendance as the presiding officer of the first session was prevented by unexpected and imperative profes- sional engagements, Hon Charles E. Vail, of Blairstown, Warren county, who origi- nated the proposal for the celebration, was appointed to the chair. The exercises were then conducted according to the programme. 10:30 A. M. 1. Invocation—By Rev. Abraham Gosman, D.D., of Lawrenceville, N. J. 2. Reading from John WycUffe's version of the Scriptures, I. Corinthians, xiii., by Rev. Dr. J. P. Wilson. 3. Hymn. • Our God, our help in ages past, Short as the watch that ends the night Our hope for years to come Before the rising dawn. Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away ; Before the hills in order stood, They fly forgotten, as a dream Or earth received her frame ; Dies at the opening day. From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come ; A thousand ages in Thy sight Be Thou our guard while troubles last, Are like an evening gone ; And our eternal home. 4. Organization, Enrollment of Delegates, Officers. — 12 The Wycliffe Sefni-Millennial Bible Celebration. 1 1 A. M. 5. Statement of the Origin and Object of the Convention—Rev. James P. Wilson, D.D., Chairman of the Executive Committee. 6. Address of Welcome Barker Gummere, Esq. 7. Response of the Presiding Officer. 8. Hymn. Upon the Gospel's sacred page More glorious still, as centuries roll, unfurled; The gathered beams of ages shine ; New regions blessed, new powers And as it hastens, every age Expanding with the expanding soul, But makes its brightness more divine. Its waters shall o'erflow the world : On mightier wing, in loftier flight, Flow to restore, but not destroy ! From year to year does knowledge soar As when the cloudless lamp of day And as it soars, the Gospel light Pours out its floods of light and joy, Adds to its influence more and more. And sweeps its lingering mist away. 11.30 A.M. 9. John Wychffe : His Times and his Bible—Professor Jas. Strong, S. T. D., Madi- son, N. J. 12 M. 10. WiUiam Tyndale and his Bible—Rev. William S. Langford, EHzabeth, N. J. The Rev. Samuel M. Studdiford, of Trenton, at the close of the morning session, exhibited to the members of the Convention a rare curiosity in the shape of a manu- script work of Wycliffe, in excellent state of preservation ; being a treatise on the Apostles' Creed, the Ten Commandments, and the Lord's Prayer. Mr. Studdiford stated that the book had been presented to his father, the late Rev. Peter O. Studdiford, D.D., of Lambertville, in 1826, by the widow of an English clergyman. As the first pages of the book are missing, Dr. Studdiford could not, at first, ascertain who was its author. Dr. Addison Alexander was greatly interested in it, and endeavored for some time to obtain some clue that might lead to the name of the author; but he met with no success in his efforts. At length Dr. Studdiford somewhere found one the earliest biographies of WycHff"e, which contained quotations from some of his works, and among these there were quota- tions from a work that Wychffe had written on the Apostles' Creed, the Ten Command- ments, and the Lord's Prayer.

GOSSON, In the office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. >§®=" The newspaper press are welcome to use such parts of the work as they may desire, on giving credit therefor to the Manual. INTRODUCTORY THE INIanual of the One Hundred and Eighth Session of the Legislature of New Jersey is, we trust, an improvement on preceding volumes. We have honestly striven every year to make each succeeding book suj^e- rior to all others, and hope, ere long, to present a work which will take rank with the best of its kind published in the United States. To do this we need a continuance of the support heretofore given us, and the official assist- ance of the Legislature. We are confident that this little hand-book, furnished at the small cost of one dollar a volume, is indispensable to every legislator, State official and others, who can, at a moment's notice, refer to it for information of any sort connected with the politics and affairs of State. The vast amount of data, compiled in such a remarkably concise manner, is the result of care- ful research of official documents; and the sketches of the Governor, members of the Judiciary, Congressmen, members of the Legislature, and State officers, are authentic.

Being required hj law to report "all proceedings relative to the details of tlie military force ordered by the Commander-in-Chief upon requisition of the President of the United States," together with "the general state of the militia, as also any improvements to advance the discipline and benefit of the militia," I beg leave to submit the following report of military transactions through this office during the past year. The year has been an extraordinary one in the history of the militia of New Jersey. The actual existence of civil war has made it in- cumbent upon Xew Jersey, in common with those of her sister States which have remained loyal, to send forth a military force in defence of the government of our country and the ancient constitution upon which it is founded. The prompt response of her citizen soldiery to the call of duty forms a part of the history of the country, and should be a source of pride to every Jerseyman. I allude to it here only to acknowledge how much and how efficiently I have been assisted in the discharge of the vastly increased and complicated duties of this department.

HUNTER Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: August 10, 2004 Copyright 2010 ADST Q: Today is the 10th of August, 2004. This is an interview with Robert Hunter, middle initial? HUNTER: E. Q: What does that stand for? HUNTER: Edwards Q: And I'm Charles Stuart Kennedy and this is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training. To begin, when and where were you born? HUNTER: The first of May, 1940 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Q: Can you tell me something about the Hunter family; let's start with the father's side. HUNTER: My father was in business, the family was from Quincy, Massachusetts. He was the first person in the family on that side to go to college, he went to Boston University. Graduated the year the Great Depression began. Of course, that was a generation that was very much affected by the Depression and what happened afterwards. Interview with The Honorable Robert E. Hunter , 2011 http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001708 Library of Congress Q: Where did the Hunters come from? HUNTER: Mostly Scotland, through Nova Scotia. Some Irish, some English, some French, way back. The first ones that show up, on Ancestry.com, I learned only recently, were in Charleston, Mass. in 1636, but we have no family lore on them - as Horatio said, I “do in part believe it!” I know we had some come from Ireland to Massachusetts in the 1740s, and then the next generation left between 1774 and '81 to go to Nova Scotia, which indicates to me they were probably on the wrong side of the Revolution! About the middle of the nineteenth century, they came back to the Quincy area.

SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, 1983 FRANCIS ASBURY: PREACHER OF HOLINESS 16 Too many today have substituted an office for the study. The study is the mountaintop where the minister has a vision of lost humanity; of the crucified and resurrected Lord; of burdened, suf­ fering, sin-sick people. The study is the minis­ ter's inner secret room where he keeps tryst with his Lord Jesus Christ. It is his holy of holies. Mere he will meet God! Here or nowhere! Here he is to receive uplifting and inspiration. Here he will be caught up into the third heav­ en. Here he will bring to God the needs of his people— their hunger, their battles, their de­ feats, and their heartaches.

John L. Murphy, Printer. PREFACE. WE present the Legislative Manual, for this year, to the public, confidently expecting that it will be received as favorably as the editions of former years. Our best efforts have been put forth to make the work as interesting and reliable as possible. Our data has been obtained from official sources, and all the personal sketches have been compiled from information received directly from those concerned. Preceding Legislatures have seen fit to officially recognize and endorse our little hand-book, and we hope to merit a similar favor from the present Senate and General Assembly. Con- sidering the vast amount of detailed and minute facts relating to every department of State which the volume contains, and which must prove of great interest to every Jerseyman, we feel that we can safely assert that the price charged (one dollar per volume) is not im- moderate.
