Minutes of the Michigan Annual Conference of the Methodist In its earliest years, the Michigan Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church apparently did not publish its proceedings. Instead the Conference Secretary wrote the minutes by hand into a large leather‐bound book, which is now housed in the West Michigan Conference Archives at Albion College. Many years later, someone created typewritten transcripts from the handwritten journal for the years before the Conference began formally printing the record of its meetings. The Archives of the Detroit Conference of the United Methodist Church has digitized this typed transcript to make it more accessible to researchers. •- •• MINUTES o.f the ~riCH IliAN A~NU.\IJ CO~F.b.HE~CE or the ~·ETH0DIST BPISCOPAL CHURCH THIHD ShSSIIIN TIFFIN, OHIO , SEPTEA.BER 5, 1838.

The dollar values depict the best available estimate of the funding the University should receive over the life of the award. These values may be modified as additional data become available relative to future funding prospects. These modifications are not reported in the attached list. As a result, the dollar values of awards presented in this list will differ from the year-end totals. The full amount of an award is recorded in the year in which it was established.

FOR over twelve years I waited for some com- petent person to write the life of my beloved father. Bishop Gilbert Haven, one of his greatest admirers, intended to do it, but his unexpected and premature death prevented the consummation. My step-mother undertook the work, but had gathered together only a few materials when the voice of the Master called her to heavenly employments. Two years ago some friends suggested the pro- priety of my embalming the memory of Bishop Thomson. I acknowledged that the work ought to be done, yet I deemed myself incompetent for such an undertaking. All who consider the subject will see that it is a very delicate matter for a son to write " the life " of his father, even though he may be pos- sessed of more facts worthy of record than any other living person; and after undertaking this work, I shrank from it time and again.

  • THE STORY of ADAM POE by Thomas D. Graham January 28
    THE STORY OF ADAM POE by Thomas D. Graham January 28, 1952 Delaware County Historical Society Delaware, Ohio 1 THE STORY OF ADAM POE In the year 1938, the William Street Church reached the 120 th year of its existence, and some of its members began thinking in terms of a suitable recognition for the 125 th year, 5 years hence. As the record of the years was reviewed, certain men and events seemed to stand out as milestones in the career of that historic church. It soon appeared that near the forefront of the stalwart men who had served William Street Church stood Adam Poe , the subject of this sketch. As we were casting about in the interest of finding someone who might search out and write the story of William Street, a trial balloon was sent in the direction of our late good friend, Benjamin L. McElroy. Unfortunately, he did not feel able to undertake the project. But a little preliminary investigation of it led him also to an interest in Adam Poe. He did some research, and prepared an article entitled “Adam Poe, Unsung Hero of Ohio Wesleyan,” published in Ohio Wesleyan Magazine, April, 1939, in which he made a plea for a fuller recognition of Adam Poe, the man, and for some kind of permanent memorial to him. Dr. H.C. Hubbart was also contacted with regard to writing the story, but he was deeply involved in research relative to his book, “Ohio Wesleyan’s First Hundred Years.” A few years passed, and the writer began collecting data for a historical sketch of the William Street Church.
